Room of the Trophies

The Room of the Trophies is named after the trophies painted in the lunettes decorating the ceiling, in the centre of the walls.

Exquisitely made stuccoes frame the lunettes and the ceiling sections.
In the corners, elaborate stucco cornices enclose eight floral paintings dating from the 18th century. Below these you can see part of other older paintings featuring groups of putti.

In the centre of the ceiling, again framed by late 17th-century stucco, there are paintings of allegorical figures. The chimney piece is in grey marble from Valdieri (18th century), and the floor is tiled with 18th-century Piedmontese terracotta.
The Counts of Biandrate used this room for gaming and until some thirty years ago, it still contained an 18th-century billiard table.
