Man Ray was one of the most famous American artists of the 20th century. A causal follower of both the Dada and Surrealist movements, he worked in a variety of media and considered himself, first and foremost, a painter above all but is best known for his photography. In particular, he is famous for his work with photograms, his so-called "rayographs." Most iconic is his image, “Ingres's Violin,” which transposes the f-holes of a violin on a nude by one of Man Ray's heroes, the 19th century French painter, Ingres.

Guest Reviews for Villa Panizzi
Very nice house, very clean and enough space to hold 5 (or a few more) persons. Very nice reception and good help in our efforts to retrieve lost baggage from the flight. Super swimming pool...we would though have liked a fence around it to protect our 3 year old from getting in trouble. Would also have liked that the outside dining section would have been shielded better towards the road running alongside the property, dangerous for a 3 year old (we tried to shield it off with some chairs but not ideal). But a very nice stay all in all.
