description

The project of Giacomo Amato for the Statella palace of the Marquis of Spaccaforno in Palermo. The essay documents the project of architectural reconfiguration of Statella palace in Palermo, a building of the sixteenth century, transformed by Giacomo Amato for prestigious aristocratic clients. The examination of archival documents, with the analysis of the original drawings, help to clarify the building history, the stages of the construction and especially the role of the architect in the process of reconfiguration of the building. The project and construction of the palace are documented by seven drawings autographs, preserved in the fourth volume of the collection of Amato’s drawings and a series of "chapters", attachments to contractual agreements between the client and the masters involved in the construction, related to the advancement of the facade.
