Abstract

Villa Farnesina, built for Agostino Chigi, is the most famous sixteenth-century building in Rome. With authorisation from its owners, the Accademia dei Lincei, a study began on the building in late 2013. The study involves a critical interpretation of the building and its environment in order to reconstruct not only the various stages of its construction, but also the figurative works by Baldassarre Peruzzi, Sebastiano del Piombo and Raphael. The study uses survey as a critical interpretation tool with a view to developing an interactive information system.
