“The Baroness Fiorella Favard de L’Anglade commissioned renowned architect Giuseppe Poggi to design a residence that would reflect her wealth and social standing. The architect chose to create a first of its kind suburban villa, overlooking the river Arno. Villa Favard was built between 1858 and 1860, in the centre of a land plot which became a magnificent example of late romantic garden.” (Villa Favard, Hydea)
