You're standing at the Villa Farnese, high above the little town of Caprarola, about fifty kilometres north-west of Rome. Take a look at the shape. This building has five sides, a huge pentagon of reddish gold stone. Buttresses hold up the upper floors. It feels more like a fortress than a country house, and that's no accident.
