The building, which was built between 1911 and 1913, is a mix of architectural inspiration that spans diverse periods of time. This mishmash of styles blends antiquity with the contemporary designs of the early 20th century.
Each detail in itself is a bit esoteric. The building’s arches mirror those found on old Roman loggias. Gargoyles, most commonly seen clinging to the sides of Gothic buildings, peer from the outer walls. Classic examples of Stile Liberty, Italy’s version of Art Nouveau, abound as well.
