I didn't know there was a strong influence of Palladio in the Georgian Era.

These houses are beautiful.

Wow.

I like them better than the larger, stately houses.

Enjoy.

Ha! My wife was there just last week when she visited Greg in Boston. It was the first time either of us had ever heard of it.

Too bad the courtyard wasn’t in bloom - it looks fantastic!

I wish I could see it in person.

Did your wife take pictures?

You missed out on a famous art heist:

They're still trying to solve it:

edit: I didn't know there was a docuseries made about the heist. I still have Netflix till the end of the month and will definitely watch it.
