Description

Casa Zevola The large apartment of Neapolitan painter, poet and philosopher Giuseppe Zevola offers a glimpse into his life. Family furniture, Baroque mirrors and other unique objects hang from the ceiling, such as the Lady Philosophy, made entirely from mirrors and round mosaics on a golden background swaying back and forth. All the doors and windows are painted in bright colours, as are the chairs, tables, tablecloths and plates. There is an abundance of chandeliers and rotating centrepieces on the tables, while on the walls the Indian mythological heroes and rub shoulders with saints and heretics. Zevola considers his amazing residence, which he calls Muta Domus, to be his personal theatre.
