Villa Giulia. Rome. Italy. View from the villa gardens of one of the columned halls that overlook the Nymphaeum. The Villa Giulia was commissioned by Pope Julius III in 1550–1555 to be used as his leisure residence. Important architects of the time worked on the build, including, Ammanati, Vasari and Vignola, the Popes favourite architect. Michelangelo was also consulted for advice. It is now the location of the Museo Nazionale Etrusco (National Etruscan Museum).
