The decorations of the doors, walls and ceilings, mainly by Giuseppe Maria Terreni confirm the transition from rococo to classic tastes in the continuity of the idea of light, airy ornamentation. Heavy crimson velvet was replaced by luminous (white, yellow, green) silk satin. Luigi Catani decorated the grand duchess's bath (1796-97) with scenes of ancient Roman ruins and life with figures dressed in the new "à la grecque" fashion.
While Boboli was still the palace gardens, it maintained the concept of the closed place, even though it was partly public domain, the Cascine dell'Isola proposed the idea of a park with ... Read More...
