Villa Bonaparte - Book

This book presents the history of Villa Bonaparte in Rome, its architectural part, the technical and human adventure of the restoration as well as the portraits of restorers with exceptional know-how. The historian Sebastiano Roberto makes assumptions about the probable architect who designed this villa in 1749 for Cardinal Gonzaga. Didier Repellin and Sixte Doussau, in charge of this restoration, present the technical and aesthetic components of a building imprinted with a refined and precursor classicism, and reveal the stakes of this restoration site. Pictures of Thibaut de Rohan-Chabot.
