This is an original 1882 black and white wood engraving of the Palazzo dei Diamanti in Ferrara, Italy, which continues to stand as one of the most influential examples of European Renaissance architecture. This historic structure was first erected around the late 1400s and served as a residence for the Este and later the Villa marquees. In 1832, the palace housed the National Gallery of Art and the Civic University.
