Korniakt Palace Roofline
Stone figures and decorative finials line the roof of this Renaissance palace (1580), forming a sculpted silhouette against the sky. The statues represent allegorical and heroic figures, a common feature of late 16th‑c. urban residences. Their rhythmic placement along the balustrade emphasizes the building’s status and the owner’s ambition to project learned sophistication.
