Palazzo Diamanti
5.0
Touch
Its main feature is the bugged exterior in the shape of diamond tips, which give the name to the palace. The approximately 8,500 blocks of white marble veined with pink create valuable perspective effects thanks to the different shape of the tips, oriented differently depending on the location in order to best capture the light (now to the ground, now centrally and towards up from the bottom of the monument). Also famous are the candelabras and corner phytomorphic decorations traditionally attributed to Gabriele Frisoni, a stonemason originally from Mantua.Inside it features a typical Renaissance courtyard with a cloister and a marble well; The latter is characteristic of the Ferrara gardens. Italian architects were inspired by the bugged decoration of this palace to build the Palace of Facets in the Kremlin in Moscow.
