Imitators
The Palazzo's design has been mimicked in several buildings outside Italy, including the Château Grimaldi near Aix-en-Provence, in England Charles Barry's great admiration for the building led him to use it as the model for London's Reform Club, France, the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., USA, and the Chief Secretary’s Building in Sydney, Australia. Also, the Royal Palace, Stockholm was inspired by the Palazzo Farnese.

Famous quotes containing the word imitators:
“The Bostonians are really, as a race, far inferior in point of anything beyond mere intellect to any other set upon the continent of North America. They are decidedly the most servile imitators of the English it is possible to conceive.”
