HistoryA farm house at the site belonged to the Bandinelli family since the 1527 when it was part of the dowry of Girolama Santi who married Girolamo Bandinelli. In 1768, in part to celebrate the marriage of Anton Domenico Bianchi Bandinelli with Cecilia Chigi Zondadari, the property was converted into an elegant villa with its private chapel and gardens. The interiors contain frescoes (1768–1779) depicting portraits of the family and friends, and of the seasons painted by Ignazio Moder. The stucco work was by François Joseph Bosio, and the Madonna painted for the chapel by Cicori.[1] Further refurbishments were added in the 19th century. The formal Italianate gardens also have architectural elements elaborated by the sculptor Bosio. It includes an outdoor theater used for performances by Vittorio Alfieri, who was a host at the house.
