Marchiori began the recreation of the Italy he left behind as he immigrated to the New World in 1956. On the ground of the villa, Commedia dell’ Arte figures, Pulcinella, Pantalone and Arlecchino, adorn columns and gates in the sculpture courtyard. The Grotto and Roman Theater welcome visitors in the front yard. Toward the rear of the property are Greco-Roman ruins, shady river walkthat feature a pocket pyramid as well as Roman pool, fountains and hot tub. Inside, each room is a surprise with whimsical theme or classical interpretation of ancient dream. Some murals were painted on large strips of canvas then installed onto the walls. Some rooms got painted directly on the walls. This is a creation of whimsy and visual delight of Marchiori.
