🎧  Listen to Introduction

Founded in the 2nd century BC, Vicenza in northern Italy flourished under Venetian rule from the early 15th century to the late 18th century. The work of Andrea Palladio (1508–80) based the city on a detailed study of classical Roman architecture gave it its distinctive appearance. Palladio's buildings in the city, as well as his villas throughout the Veneto region, had a decisive influence on the development of architecture. His work inspired a unique architectural style, the Palladian style, which spread to England and other European countries and was sold to North America.
