East facade on the Courtyard of Honour

Giulio Romano1524/1534

Palazzo Te

Palazzo Te
Mantova, Italy

The east wing of the palace is characterized by a triple arch, held up at the centre by eight columns. The triple opening is balanced by large windows, four on the left and four on the right, which add rhythm to the facade, enhanced by a triangular tympanum, similar to the one of the Pantheon in Rome. The building is reflected in the water, creating yet another artifice.
