Casa Fontana-Silvestri, Renaissance palace on Corso Venezia, Milan, Italy
The Casa Fontana Silvestri displays decorative terracotta frames around its windows, with rectangular shapes on the lower floor and arched forms above.
Built by the Fontana family in the 1400s, this palace incorporates elements from a previous 12th-century structure and served as residence for Milan's eastern gate guardian.
The building combines Renaissance and Gothic architectural elements, featuring a courtyard with porticoes and capitals that reflect 15th-century Italian design principles.
The palace stands as a protected Italian national heritage site, allowing visitors to examine its architectural details from Corso Venezia.
The facade originally displayed frescoes attributed to Bramante or Bramantino, with traces still visible beneath the building's cornice.
