Palazzo Ziino

Palazzo Ziino in Palermo, Palermo, Italy | Art Gallery

The building was designed by Nunzio Ziino, an architect. The funds for the construction of the Art Gallery Palazzo Ziino, building seems to come from a generous parcel by Vincenzo Florio who suggested to use the money for this purpose.

Art Gallery Palazzo Ziino, affected neoclassical taste of the late nineteenth century in Palermo, Italy from an architectural point of view, the large entrance hall and local service on the ground floor, first floor with the representation environments, upper floors for the children and staff. Opened on March 4, 1895, it is no coincidence that the party of both architecture is characterized by large fluted Corinthian columns. Art Gallery Palazzo Ziino is clearly the matrix of its neoclassical design, the four fluted columns used the ground floor as stilobate, connecting the first and second floor with a Corinthian height of 9 diameters as proposed by Vignola, the third floor was designed as a high attic to support an imposing frame of pure and perfect style Corinthian. The building has been enriched with valuable works of art of which few traces remain now.

Ernesto Basile was asked to draw the curtains in brocade and velvet that were divided among the heirs in Art Gallery Palazzo Ziino, in Palermo Italy. The Painter Rocco Lentini was commissioned to paint the sopraporta wood were entirely stolen. The Painter Joseph Enea painted some wallpapers subsequently replaced. The Painter Padovano Ernesto frescoed once the living room with naked woman.
