Overview

Excerpt from Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome, Vol. 27 While the importance of the cortile is easily recognized, the facade of the palace does not communicate its significance so readily. It too is unique. But as a work of the very late sixteenth century it is old-fashioned and even odd. A date earlier than 1590 changes this. Every decade, every year it can be pushed back increases its historical importance. The date, the significance, and the great architect of the Borghese facade were the most surprising revelations that the palace had in store.
