Together with Palazzo Bevilacqua, Honorij and Pompei, Palazzo Canossa is one of the four buildings in Verona that were built by the 16th century architect, Michele Sanmicheli. He designed the building probably between 1530 and 1537 but it was not finished until around the second half of the 17th Century by Lelio and Vincenzo Pellesina who kept to the original plans and built the two wings that overlook the Adige. The palace is built in stone, with framed, arch windows on the upper floor. In 1761 following the superelevation of the lounge to the upper floor the loggia was added to the pediment with statues of mythological figures by Giuseppe Antonio Schiavi. Giambattista Tiepolo painted the lounge vault with scenes from the Glory of Hercules however, most of it was lost in the second world war bombings.
