1520/27 Baldassarre Peruzzi
(1481/1536) for Ugo Spina
Renovated
about 1720 by the brilliant Alessandro Specchi
(1668/1729) for Alessandro Pighini and formerly known as Palazzo Pighini
Since the
nineteenth century it is owned by the Gallo di Roccagiovine family still living
in the building
A recent
restoration has brought back the original sky color typical of many eighteenth-century buildings, unfortunately,
often darkened by layers of paint applied in the nineteenth century
In the
courtyard there is a spectacular staircase over
three floors that the genius of Alessandro Specchi
wanted visible and external, breaking with the tradition of noble staircases
not visible and internal
