Eldest son of the famous Luigi , the author of the Palace of Caserta. He carried out his instruction as an architect and engineer, with two of his brothers, under the paternal guidance in the yard of the Palace and then planning the Caroline Aqueduct. When Carlo was in his early twenties, his father decided continuing to make him work between Naples and Caserta, whereas his other two brothers moved to Spain.
This is how Carlo gave continuity to his father’s work, first under his supervision and then, after his death in 1773, autonomously. He was the one who realised the famous English garden in Caserta as well as the decorations inside the Palace. Between his works, the Casina vanvitelliana del Fusaro, Villa Campolieto in Herculaneum, Villa Reale and Villa Comunale in the capital. Carlo died in Naples in 1821.
