Andrea Mantegna, Mantova, Italy, 1476
OfHouses guest curated by Studiospazio : ”This house hosts the atelier of Mantegna on the ground floor and his apartment on the upper floor. It can be understood as a solitary building with a central courtyard, as well as a townhouse embedded in the urban fabric. Because of the coexistence of these two contrasting characters the intangible inner world avoids the isolation from the city.” (Photo:
