Following the steps of Ottavio Bertotti Scamozzi, who, during the 18th century drew all Andrea Palladio’s buildings, Giaconi Publications’s ® interest in the venetian architectural heritage has results of great value.

Every drawing on Facciate come to life throught a precise study done with metric and photographic surveys.

Many preparatory, drawings precede the final original drawing, which is first drawn with ink on paper, than watercolored, and the result is a valuable work of art that represent with detail the present conservation of the building.

Thanks to raffinate, reproduction techniques, the original watercolor can be printed in copies and it’s diffusion can grant the revaluation of our artistic heritage for the public.
