Artist's Description
The Cardinal Building and the Queen’s Pavilion are separate historical villas that now comprise the Hotel Villa d'Este. The hotel website describes The Queen's Pavilion, seen here, as "an elegant red trompe l'oeil building." It was interesting to me to discover that trompe l'oeil is a term or technique that might be used in architecture to create the illusion of a much deeper space than a building actually occupies.
In 1815 Caroline of Brunswick, the Princess of Wales, moved to the area and changed the name of the site from Villa Garrovo to Villa D'este. (This was an older building).

Thanks for the feature, Tatiana, and sorry for circling back so late, but we were on yet another trip these last weeks. We found Lake Como to be rich in vibrant color, culture and history. The people were wonderful and the real fun for us came later as we worked to identify the landmarks we encountered. We did a companion YouTube video and were surprised with the great interest in this area.
