Storia

Vanvitelli's theatre in the Neapolitan royal palace at Caserta (1752-59) marks the beginning of a long-lived fashion—the semi-circle of giant columns uniting several tiers of boxes. In this case they are genuine Roman columns of giallo antico from a temple at nearby Pozzuoli. Here, on a relatively small scale, Vanvitelli showed how use of classical orders could be used with a new grandeur. The lowest level of boxes is treated as a series of pedestals, on which stand giant Corinthian column embracing three more rows of boxes. The theatre has that odd feeling o frigidity which often affects Italian Neoclassicism, but it was a brilliant ide; handled with undeniable confidence.
