The staircase is built to connect the three apartments and the Gallery created in the new wing. Its ovate plan is constructed using almost straight elements, linked by semicircles; the central septum is animated by a sequence of recesses; other recesses were envisaged in the external course of the wall. In the grand arched entrance, two Corinthian columns with the characteristic inverted arch volutes - are enriched by an exuberant stucco decoration.
