Villa la Rotonda, Renaissance art museum in Vicenza, Italy
Villa La Rotonda presents four identical porticos extending from each facade, crowned by a central dome above a circular hall.
Paolo Almerico commissioned architect Andrea Palladio to design the villa in 1567, though neither of them lived to see its completion.
The mathematical precision of room proportions in Villa La Rotonda follows principles detailed in Palladio's architectural treatise I Quattro Libri dell'Architettura.
Visitors can access the interior of Villa La Rotonda from Friday through Sunday, with Count Nicolò Valmarana conducting occasional guided tours.
The architectural design of Villa La Rotonda influenced numerous structures worldwide, including the design elements of the White House in Washington D.C.
