Villa Machiavelli







This place is just too amazing. They say it was the home of the Machiavelli family (and really he was maligned, he was simply chronicling the times). It also says that this villa somehow bears the hand of Michaelangelo and Vasari, though I am not sure what hand did what. It makes me wonder what it would take to create a new Renaissance. I wonder what if anything from today will survive into the future as these artists and luminaries have -- the molto bene wife

Hi! Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving such a sweet comment. Your blog is wonderful. I love the Machiavelli home and all the different examples of Venetian plaster. Where are you guys located in the Bay Area? I don't have a good venetian plaster company to put in my resource file yet for my interior design business.
Thanks, Rebecca. We are located in Livermore, but do work all over the Bay Area -- Atherton, Woodside, Marin, SF, etc etc etc. - mb wife
