Villa Olmo



Villa Olmo is the residence of some noble family situated in a small little picturequette town of Como in Italy, facing the picturequette Lake Como.

Construction started in 1782 and completed in 1797. It has this neo-classic style in architecture. Currently Villa Olmo is used for international conferences and events organized by Alessandro Volta Centre of Scientific Culture.

This small little 'palace' is not well-known to the general tourists visiting Italy. And I didn't expect anyone would bother to download photos of such a less-known palace from microstock sites.

Then something interesting happened. In the past week or so, my photos of the villa had been downloaded from different stock sites. Two of them are even enhanced license sales.

Mmmmh.....What is brewing there?
