Tito Azzolini

In 1857, he studied architecture and perspective at the Accademia of Fine Arts of Bologna, under Francesco Cocchi.

For a few years, worked as a scenographer for a number of theaters, including the Teatro Apollo of Rome.

In Bologna, he labored in scenography for the Teatro Comunale and sent his pupils to study the art as it was practiced in Vienna and Monaco, especially Wagnerian works.

[1] Along with the engineer, Attilio Muggia, he constructed porticos and outdoor staircases (1893–96) in the Park of Montagnola (1893–96) .

Azzolini followed the rules of the competition, which required work on a Palace in a renaissance style recalling the Florentine Quattrocento and was inspired by the Palazzo Strozzi.
