Villa Salviatino, Maiano
The Villa Salviatino, Maiano, in the ''frazione'' of Maiano on the steep slope south of Fiesole, is a Tuscan villa overlooking Florence.
A modest farmhouse in the 14th century, set among informally terraced slopes planted with vines and olives, the house in its ''vigna'' was purchased in 1427 by the Bardi family, bankers of Florence, who rebuilt it in such palatial fashion that when it was subsequently sold to Nicola Tegliacci in 1447, the new owner named it ''Palagio (palazzo) dei Tegliacci.''〔(Il Salviatino: History )〕 In the 16th century it passed to Alamanno Salviati, who had it sumptuously frescoed and furnished; thus it gained its name as the Villa ''Il Salviatino'', to distinguish it from the grander Villa Salviati "le Selve", near Lastra, to the west.〔Touring Club Italiano, ''Firenze e dintorni'' (Milan, 1964) p. 406f; ''Eclettismo a Firenze. L'attività di Corinto Corinti', (Florence, 1985); G. Carocci ''I dintorni di Firenze'' (Florence, 1906); Lensi Orlandi Cardini, ''Le ville di Firenze'' (Florence, 1954).〕 The villa was celebrated by Francesco Redi, in his ''Bacco in Toscana'' (1685): "viva il nome Del buon Salviati, ed il suo bel Maiano''.
In 1871 the villa was purchased by Pietro Pagliano, who added a medievalizing crenellated tower, but a new, more sympathetic owner, the American Phelps Thomas, took ownership in 1882 and began a programme of free restoration and aggrandisement, to designs of the antiquarian architect Corinto Corinti (1843–1930).〔(Fondo disegni tecnici del Comune di Firenze ): dates July 1882-November 1886.〕 A large central staircase was added and grand ''cinquecento'' portals. He reduced the tower, designed a new vaulted ''porte-cochere'' for carriages, overhung by a garden, which still exist, and remodelled the park by adding an Italian terraced garden and conservatories, with a pergola that Penelope Hobhouse found to resemble the wooden frames shown in woodcuts for Francesco Colonna's ''Hypnerotomachia Poliphili''.〔Hobhouse, ''Plants in garden history'', 2004, p. 150.〕 Augusto Bruschi was entrusted with decorative painting, covering walls with medieval and neo-cinquecento patterns.〔 After a sale of its contents in 1891〔Arthur Van de Put, "On a Missing Alhambra Vase, and the Ornament of the Vase Series,", in ''Archaeologia, or miscellaneous tracts relating to antiquity'' 92 Society of Antiquaries of London, 1947, note p. 43; "...the sale of the magnificent collection gathered together during the last twenty years in the Villa Salviatino by an American lady long resident there," noted in ''The Furniture Gazette'' 1890, p. 191; the lady in question, not American, appears to have been Lucy Baxter (daughter of the Dorsetshire poet William Barnes (1800-1886) publishing under the pseudonym Leader Scott); the sale catalogue ''Villa et domaine du Salviatino á Florence et Château d'Acquabella à Vallombrosa: catalogue des objets d'art et d'ameublement dont la vente aux enchères publiques aura lieu à Florence à la Villa del Salviatino le 8 avril 1891''; that same year appeared her topographical sketch ''Vingigliano and Maiano''.〕 the villa passed into the hands of the Carrega di Lucedio family and then, in 1911,〔(Marco Nicoletti , "Case e memorie:La casa di Ugo Ojetti" ).〕 to the art critic, journalist and founder of the art magazine ''Il Dedalo'', Ugo Ojetti and his wife Fernanda,〔Some of her letters (as "Ferdinanda") are referenced in Paolo Viti, ''Letteratura, verità e vita: studi in ricordo di Gorizio Viti'' (Edizioni di storia e letteratura) vol. 2, 2005.〕 who undertook further structural remodeling, removing many of the 19th century accretions, and installing an extensive library and many paintings and sculptures.〔Touring Club Italiano, ''Firenze e dintorni'' (Milan, 1964) 415; the villa when it was Ojetti's was documented by Vincenzo Balocchi, ''Interior and exterior views of the Villa del Salviatino: home of Ugo Ojetti.'' Studio Fotografico Barsotti, Fotografico Aragozzini, Grand Studio of Malta - 1949; see ()〕 From 1973 to 1987 the Villa ''Il Salviatino'' housed Stanford University's overseas program ''Stanford in Italy'' with classrooms, offices, library, dining facilities, and students' rooms.〔''Stanford Overseas Studies'', 1984, etc.〕
In the summer, including 1980, University of Michigan and Sara Lawrence College held their summer school program there.
In the first decade of the 21st century the villa was restored and refuirbished as a boutique hotel.〔(
