[On May 31st VeloceToday presented Alessandro Gerelli’s report on the event held on Sunday, May 22 at Villa d’Erba. The previous day Hugues Vanhoolandt covered the Concorso d’Elegance which was held at the nearby Villa d’Este. Both events fall under the same heading at Villa d’Este however. This week, Vanhoolandt assembled his photos and comments from the concours and included some newer models seen at the show. See a short video above and the rest of the story below. Ed.]

Just a typical day at Lake Como.
Founded in 1568 in Cernobbio, on the shores of Lake Como, the Renaissance palace was commissioned by Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio. After passing through the hands of several aristocratic owners, the name of Villa d’Este was given to the Villa in 1815.
