 1570 is possibly the date of the completion of the villa's decorative scheme.The villa is not included in "I quattro libri dell'architettura", Palladio's treatise of 1570, in which the architect discussed a number of his creations.However, it is similar to certain villas, such as the Villa Saraceno, that Palladio is known to have created in the 1540s and 1550s.
