Описание к видео "The Most Imitated Architect in History" -- Andrea Palladio part 1 -- AB+C 91

We're starting a series exploring the work of Andrea Palladio. In his own time, Palladio was a prominent architect based in 16th century Vicenza.

Subsequently he's become arguably one of the most influential architects of all history -- defining a style of classical architecture which became the house-style of elites around the world.

The most characteristic works in his long career are villas -- country houses on "terra ferma" for the rich merchants of Vicenza and nearby Venice -- though he also carried out some major local works of civic and religious architecture, and wrote a number of books.

In this episode we're starting off, exploring him, his time, and some of the earliest Villas, including the Villa Godi.
