Masterpieces of the hall

The hall

Stanza di passaggio

This small room was used as a boudoir during Mussolini’s residence in the building. It is lined with wall-paper.
During restoration of the Casino, removal of the wall-paper along the ceiling revealed a frieze with small frescoed decorations that resemble elements in the Bacchus Room.
