#PaulMcCartney (vocals on "The Girl Is Mine"), #EddieVanHalen (legendary πŸ‘‰ guitar solo on "Beat It"), #VincentPrice (legendary voiceover on "Thriller"), percussionist #PaulinhoDaCosta, vocalist #JamesIngram, keyboardist #GregPhilliganes plus all members of #Toto who released their πŸ‘‰ most succesful album earlier that year.

Andrea Palladio, widely considered one of the most influential architects in history, was born in #Padua, at the time under the Republic Of Venice.

The city of #Vicenza, with its 23 buildings designed by #Palladio, and the 24 Palladian Villas of the #Veneto region are listed by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites.
In particular the influence of #PalladianVillas design and style can be found all over the world in public buildings and constructions, the most famous example is the US CapitolπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Here in Venice we can admire several churches designed and built by #AndreaPalladio, most notably the Church and Refectory of San Giorgio Maggiore island, the Church of Redentore, the Church of Le Zitelle, the faΓ§ade for the Church of San Francesco della Vigna, the faΓ§ade for the Basilica of San Pietro di Castello (see πŸ“Έβ˜οΈ).

Have you ever visited some of these amazing buildings?
