Well today is our last day in Seville! Our sight seeing today was to an area in Seville that contains a late 15th century nobleman's palace. It is called "Pontius Pilot House" because it was patterned after a Roman Villa. It contains some very fine first century Greek and Roman sculpture, 2 magnificent gardens, much decorative plaster work, incredible mosaic tiles, fine architectural details including capitaled pink marble pillars.The upper floor is still used by descendants of the family when they come to visit on occasion. A remarkable work of art!
