Pati de l’Ambaixador Vich, València.

This patio was built around 1525 as part of the palace built for Jeroni Vich i Vallterra, the Valencian ambassador to Rome. By the 1800s, the palace was in ruins and its marble had been used to decorate other buildings of the city, such as the El Carme convent. In 2007, the Museu de Belles Arts de València (Museum of Fine Arts of Valencia) reunited the marbles and rebuilt the patio to its original state.
