MUTTONI, Francesco
MUTTONI, Francesco – Francesco Muttoni was an Italian architect, engineer, and architectural writer, mainly active near Vicenza, Italy. His work represents the transition from late Venetian Baroque to Neoclassicism, which his studies of Palladio did much to promote in its early stages. His style, however, was never entirely free of the Baroque elements acquired during his formative years. Muttoni was known to correspond closely with Lord Burlington, who built Chiswick House.
