In 1766 Lord Cowper came here and, with his wife, who had been the beautiful Miss Gore, found it so enchanting that they made it their home ; and Sir Horace Mann, in his letters, gives an account of their brilliant entertainments and of the admiration of the Italian people, high and low, for the young and lovely Countess. From 1824 an eccentric lady, Miss Mary Farhill, lived in it for thirty years. She left it to the Grand Duchess Marie Antoinette de Bourbon, and in 1874 it passed into the hand...s of Lord Crawford. In 1888 and again in 1893 Lady Crawford lent her beautiful villa to Queen Victoria. Many people recall the interest that was aroused by the sight of the English Queen driving about the country near, and expressing the greatest pleasure at her stay.
In the National Gallery is an interesting picture of the Assumption of Our Lady, attributed by Vasari to Botticelli, but now considered to be a school painting. It has " an infinite number of figures, with the zones of the heavens, the Patriarchs, the Prophets, the Apostles, the Evangelists, the Martyrs, the Confessors, the Doctors, the Virgins, and the Hierarchies.
