Views of the interior focus on two rooms. The baroque room is decorated with a ceiling fresco (18th century) of landscapes, nude figures holding portrait-shields of eminent citizens, and a balustrade. What Hutzel calls the "Zucarri Salon" or "Pinacoteca" is filled with religious paintings, frescoes, marble busts, crucifixes, a German sculpture of the Pieta (15th century), and a diptych by Petruccioli. German-born photographer and scholar Max Hutzel (1911-1988) photographed in Italy from the early 1960s until his death. The result of this project, referred to by Hutzel as Foto Arte Minore, is thorough documentation of art historical development in Italy up to the 18th century, including objects of the Etruscans and the Romans, as well as early Medieval, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque monuments. Images are organized by geographic region in Italy, then by province, city, site complex and monument.
