House of Ignazio Villa, 1847
Via Santa Lucia
Florence, January 2024
“Ignazio Villa's house is located between Il Prato and via Santa Lucia in Florence. It was one of the most interesting examples of neo-Gothic architecture in Italy, but the lack of some decorations and the mediocre state of conservation in which it is today reduce its importance. The Milanese Ignazio Villa built it for himself around 1847, when the whole area was affected by intense building activity (for example the nearby Rotonda dei Barbetti dates back to 1845 and Villa Favard to 1855-1858).” (House of Ignazio Villa, Wikipedia)
