	Villa History
		Rome had more than its share of villas with easy reach of the small 16th century city:Villa Madama, the design of which, attributed to Raphael, was carried out by Giulio Romano in 1520, was one of the most influential private houses ever built; elements derived from Villa Madama appeared in villas through the 19th century.
		In the 19th century villa was extended to describe any suburban house that was free-standing in a landscaped plot of ground, as opposed to a 'terrace' of joined houses.
		By the time 'semi-detached villas' were being erected at the turn of the 20th century, the term collapsed under its extension and overuse.

	About Andrea Palladio \| Abbeville Press
		With the Villa Badoer, Palladio put the definitive touches on his reorganization of the structures associated with villa life, which he achieved through practical and symbolic adjustments to conventional building.
		Because of this, the columns are extremely suitable for the needs of villas since carts and farm implements can be left under them; their cost is also low." The grounds for applying the Tuscan order to the farm arcades of the Villa Badoer were thus both practical and aesthetic.
		Palladio made the walkway the same length as the columns, and as the intercolumniation sanctioned for the Tuscan order was exceptionally wide he placed a distance of five modules or five column diameters between each.

	Palladio's Italian Villas-Analysis
		Villa Pisani at Bagnolo (probably incorporating an earlier tower on the left), Villa Caldogno, Villa Saraceno, Villa Gazzotti -- are all substantially similar, and modest in their exterior motif.
		But Villa Cornaro is one of Palladio's double-faced villas, and the street side brings the grand culmination of the evolution of Palladio's exterior motifs.
		Harmonic proportion provides an insight to some of Palladio's villas, particularly the later ones, but equally or more important was the theory of "perfect numbers." The numbers "6" and "10" were deemed to be "perfect" numbers because they reflect the proportions of the human body in several dimensions, including the ratio of front-to-back and side-to-side.

		Yet the Palladian Villas, which are included on the UNESCO World Heritage List thanks to their magnificence and the rich dÃ©cor which was entrusted to master artists such as Mantegna, are not only those designed by Palladio.
		A few kilometers away is Villa Alessandri, with its predominance of Baroque-style dÃ©cor, and in StrÃ is Villa Pisani, an 18th Century palace which was once owned by Doge Alvise Pisani and designed by Girolamo Frigimelica with 35 salons full of stuccoes and frescoes, including the last work painted by Giovan Battista Tiepolo.

	Brenta Riviera - Venetia - Welcome to Italy
		The villas - Navigation began at St. Mark’s Square, with the famous "Burchiello", a sort of venetian boat, and after crossing the Venetian lagoon, the boats gained the river Brenta and touched the various towns and villages along the Riviera, landing stage in Padua.
		In the course of time, navigation along the Brenta was abandoned in favour of road transport, and the river lost all the once-booming activities that had been connected with it.
		Only in mid-20th century did the old magic of the villas experience a revival, and with them life was brought back to the river.

		In post-Roman times a villa referred to a self-sufficient, usually fortified Italian or Gallo-Roman farmstead.
		It was economically as self-sufficient as a village and its inhabitants, who might be legally tied to it as serfs were villeins.
		In 14th and 15th century Italy, a 'villa' once more connoted a country house, sometimes the family seat of power like Villa Caprarola, more often designed for seasonal pleasure, usually located within easy distance of a city.

		His sixteenth-century villas in the Italian Veneto revolutionized the course of architecture, and the principles on which he based his work are still felt today.
		Together with brief descriptions of each villa, samples of Giaconi's preparatory sketches, and where available, Palladio's own woodcuts, these works of art leave a deep impression of Palladio's oeuvre and give the reader an opportunity to compare the original designs with the actual buildings and their present state of conservation.
		The villa that Gian Giorgio Trissino built in Cricoli, on the outskirts of Vicenza, is a mixture of the older tradition of terraferma villas and the new architecture of classicism developed by Raphael and his master, Peruzzi.

		The Veneto Villa has a wider frontage with less depth than the Ionic Villa, to take account of the different shape of the site.
		The plan is based on the designs by Andrea Palladio for the Villa Badoer and the Villa Zena published in the Quattro Libri and was thoroughly revised as the design developed.
		Whereas the Ionic Villa employs a giant Order with four columns and is massive in scale, this Villa employs a Doric Order with a superimposed Ionic Order and parapet on eight columns.

	Palladian Villas of the Veneto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The City centre of Vicenza and the Palladian Villas of the Veneto are a cluster of works by Andrea Palladio and his disciples which were inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1994 and expanded two years later.
		The term villa was always used to describe the country house distinguishing them from the family Palazzo which was usually in town.
		In most cases the family coupled their surname with the Palazzo or Villa title, hence confusingly there is both a Villa and a Palazzo Chiericati, just as their is a Palazzo Foscari in Venice and a Villa Foscari in the [1] in the Veneto.
