1731 · Casina del Caccia, Stupinigi
interiorIn the hunting palace at Stupinigi, outside Turin, erected by Filippo Juvarra between 1729 and 1731, a domed hall serves to link the themes of the four suits of rooms leading into it. With its four free-standing pillars and continuous second-floor balcony, the architecture itself is so open and delightful that the frescoed vault with Diana stories, executed by the Valeriani brothers, plays only a subordinated role.
