Die Villa imperiale in Pesaro; Studien zur kunstgeschichte der italienischen Renaissancevilla und ihrer Innendekoration

Patzak, Bernhard, 1873- · 1908 · Leipzig, Klinkhardt & Biermann · 38 pictures

A 1908 German art-historical study by Bernhard Patzak, published in Leipzig, examining the Villa Imperiale at Pesaro and the interior decoration of Italian Renaissance villas. The pictures are black-and-white halftone reproductions of faded frescoes, one architectural section drawing, and a scholarly survey of the villa's wall and ceiling painting. A designer could take from them the layered compositions of Renaissance mural panels, with enthroned figures framed by painted architecture and allegorical women set in corner niches.
