About
Villa Rusciano is a historic villa in the neighbourhood of Florence, central Italy, which includes work by Brunelleschi. Set in a hilly area on the outskirts of Florence, the Villa name is derived from the area, once an agricultural estate. The villa was cited by Franco Sacchetti in Trecentonovelle, and once belonged to the Salviati family. In the mid-15th century, Luca Pitti bought the estate and had it restructured by Filippo Brunelleschi. The original project was not fully completed. Of this project only the huge staircase and decorative parts of the inner courtyard and interiors remain. Inside there is also a della Robbia sculpture with cherubs.
