A palace designed by Raffaele Croce in Genoa

Un palazzo progettato da Raffaele Croce a Genova

A palace designed by Raffaele Croce in Genoa.
I have seen (and I think photographed) this palace located in via XX Settembre, just a short distance from the Ponte Monumentale, several times but by searching and searching I managed to discover that it was designed in 1909 by Raffaele Croce.
I really like its style and colors!

Have you ever seen this building and can you tell me something more?

Where exactly is the palace located:

Number 26, characterised by a more mature and less academic style, has sea water as its main theme: spiral seaweed-shaped motifs that are repeated on the façade and as a constituent element of the antheris, leviathans that become finishing touches to the arches and uprights of the internal railings, dolphins and mythological motifs.

The porticoes and the motto of Genoa in via XX

I portici ed il motto di Genova in via XX Settembre

The porticos and motto of Genoa in Via XX Settembre.
Via XX Settembre is one of the main arteries of Genoa, famous for its elegant and decorated porticos. These porticos, which extend along a large part of the street, are characterized by mosaic floors and richly decorated ceilings, with elements ranging from neo-Gothic to Art Nouveau style.
An interesting detail is the motto found under one of the neo-Gothic porticos, near the Zara exit. The motto reads: “As the Griffin seizes these, so Genoa tears to pieces its enemies”. This motto, accompanied by a griffin seizing an eagle and a fox, dates back to the ancient Republic of Genoa. The eagle represents imperial authority, while the fox symbolizes Pisa, one of Genoa's main rivals.

Have you ever walked under these porticos? Is there any detail that particularly struck you?

The beautiful via Fieschi in the modern heart of Genoa

La bella via Fieschi nel cuore moderno di Genova

The beautiful Via Fieschi in the modern heart of Genoa.
Travelling along Via XX Settembre, the modern heart of the Superba, several important streets branch off: one of these is Via Fieschi which, after the initial part, goes up to the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta in Carignano.

Here is the spot where I took this photo:

The Fieschi family was one of the major Genoese families. Of ancient origin – they took their name from the founder Ugo Fliscus – they were descendants of the counts of Lavagna who had begun to enlarge their fiefdoms within the Marca Obertenga in the 11th century. Originally from the Levante hinterland, the Fieschi had their feudal center in the Tigullio area, the Fontanabuona valley and the hinterland up to the Aveto valley. Here was the center of their power and where in fact the Basilica dei Fieschi was erected in Cogorno in the mid-13th century.

Il portico di via Ceccardo Roccatagliata Ceccardi

Il portico di via Ceccardo Roccatagliata Ceccardi a Genova.
Tutte le volte che percorro la splendida via XX Settembre a Genova cammino sempre con il naso all’insù per godermi le splendide architetture che la abbelliscono.
Oltre ai portici ed ai palazzi eleganti ci sono anche diversi punti in cui le strade laterali sono coperte, all”incrocio, con la continuazione dei portici.
Non so nemmeno come chiamare queste strutture: terrazze, archivolti, portici?
Questa è quella da cui parte via Ceccardo Roccatagliata Ceccardi e che si congiunge a piazza Dante.

Here's where the exact point is:

Ceccardo Roccatagliata Ceccardi (Genova, 6 gennaio 1871 – Genova, 3 agosto 1919) è stato un poeta italiano. È stato un precursore della poesia ligure del Novecento che va da Camillo Sbarbaro a Eugenio Montale, ma nella sua formazione s’incrociano anche residui carducciani e inquietudini decadenti che rinviano a Pascoli, a D’Annunzio e ai simbolisti francesi. Nelle sue composizioni migliori s’avverte un teso lirismo che si placa a tratti in eleganti movenze elegiache o in dense evocazioni del paesaggio ligure.

The final part of via Fieschi in Genoa

The final part of via Fieschi in Genoa.
Some time ago I went for a walk, with friends, in one of the parts of Genoa that I have never seen well.
This is in fact via Fieschi, the straight uphill road that from via XX Settembre goes up to the Church of Carignano that you can see there at the end.

It is enough, at the height of the Ponte Monumentale, to climb a few steps and you arrive on this terrace with the splendid church on one side and the beautiful noble buildings of via Venti on the other.
