The facade of the Nicolosio Lomellini palace in Genoa
The facade of the Nicolosio Lomellini palace in Genoa.
One of the most beautiful and famous streets in Genoa is certainly via Garibaldi, home to many of the Rolli palaces.
One of the palaces is the one I photographed in this article: Palazzo Podestà (or Nicolosio Lomellini) from the name of the last owner, Andrea Podestà.
Have you ever walked the street in Genoa where this building is located?

Where is the palace:
The façade, where the strong presence of Bergamasco is perceived, is enlivened by a rich stucco decoration, with winged female herms, to support the string course of the ground floor; ribbons and drapes to hold up, on the first floor, trophies of arms; garlands and masks crowning the windows, with classical figures within oval medallions, on the second. Even in the festive stucco apparatus of the oval-plan atrium, the intervention of Bergamasco is evident, who was able to introduce the suggestions of the most up-to-date Mannerist culture to Genoa.
