• Caption: The upper facade, faced with handcut red volcanic stones, gives the typical Renaissance illusion of two floors. Six faux pillars cut from Kokinopetra, the volcanic red stones, have marble capitals. Below the two arched doorways tower over the Courtyard. The arches are outlined with Kokinopetra and supported by detailed pillars. The plaster facade is a tuscany earthy red color with a skillfully crafted polished patina, almost a lost art on the island.
