Gerardi Palace

Gerardi Palace dates back to the XVIII century, maybe ascribable to Antonio Turbini, it was property of the builder Gerardi, Cerutti, Ungaro and at present it is owned by different private citizens.
The entry leads to the portico of three spans which are scanned by four columns.
On the first floor the hall of honour shows a half-raised ceiling. The room is particularly embellished with a false marble cornice above this one a XVIII century squaring is depicted; on a green fretwork two oval spirals are depicted while sideways big shelves with a big leaf opened to the middle, they are a support of peonies and flowers which embellished the building.
The wooden doors with cimiera shaped like a shell that introduce each room are of great beauty. Crossing a small room you may notice a medal depicting Minerva with putto, who flies about holding up the portray of the goddess.
The last room shows above the false marble frame a squaring which distinguishes for the succession of lunette with vegetable ornaments and moulded ovals and rich title blocks which enclose female characters. The central medal is probably the work of an artist, a Savanni’s learner.
