Villa Medici

The Villa Medici is a mannerist villa and an architectural complex with a garden contiguous with the larger Borghese gardens, on the Pincian Hill next to Trinità dei Monti in Rome. The Villa Medici, founded by Ferdinando I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany and now property of the French State, has housed the French Academy in Rome since 1803. A musical evocation of its garden fountains features in Ottorino Respighi's Fontane di Roma.

Annamaria: Good job! Right balance between beauty of the garden, architectural
harmony and pictorial decoration.

Dopo la visione di questo video è bello rileggere il PIACERE di D'Annunzio e riascoltare Ottorino Respighi Le Fontane di Roma.

This video is great! Very cool introduction in maps with a national anthem, and then Vivaldi's La Primavera, all with identification of the grounds and statuary. Very well done.

The Vivaldi is nice. The " . . . and her children" is really nice.

Mia bella villa!

The national anthem is a great start to the video. Makes me proud to be part Italian.

[@annjoyce579]

I'm also prod to be Italian, although orphan age 2 raised in usa by non-family strangers, mo was murdered, granddad ended up murdered after I met him, great-grandfathers both murdered...yet, home to Italy I'd love to go. Home is where the heart is. Friends in America will be good experiences for me. Thanks for video.

L'unica Villa Medicea al di fuori della Toscana.

nell'accezione che villa era un palazzo con gioardino esiste anche il palazzo di di Maria de Medici a Parigi

[@proarte4081]

@@giuseppenegri4750 A parte le considerazioni di natura stilistica, non so se si possa definire "mediceo" un palazzo costruito dalla Regina di Francia...seppur originaria della famiglia medici, ormai facente parte di quella dei Borbone...

Certe proprietà nazionale reale sono private.

How can one make a video of a Florentine villa in Rome and put music from Venice. It is pure stupidity. Geographical Italy and political are two different things and time. Bad taste.
