Andrea Palladio (1508-1580)
Ackerman (Palladio, 1966) makes that point that Palladio's
     patrons were military figures with connections to the Holy
     Roman Emperor, not to Rome or Venice, and that it was the
     center of the Reformation in Italy. Vicenza had been a
     battleground in war between the Papacy and Venice in the first
     half of the sixteenth century. Thus Palladio called on to
     reestablish the architectural tradition in the town and he
     worked for men with limited contacts to Rome itself. Trips to
     Rome in 1541, 1547 and 1554.
