BASILICA OF SAINT PETER

In the construction of the basilica some of the most renowned architects in history worked, such as Donato Bramante, Michelangelo and Bernini. Donato di Pascuccio d'Antonio, known as Bramante was an Italian painter and architect, who introduced the style of the first Renaissance in Milan and the High Renaissance in Rome. Michelangelo Buonarroti, known in Spanish as Miguel Ángel, was an Italian Renaissance architect, sculptor and painter, considered one of the greatest artists in history both for his sculptures and for his paintings and architectural works. He developed his artistic work over more than seventy years between Florence and Rome, which was where his great patrons lived, the Medici family of Florence and the different Roman popes. Gian Lorenzo Bernini was an Italian sculptor, architect and painter. He worked mainly in Rome and is considered the most outstanding sculptor of his generation, creator of the baroque sculptural style. Its construction lasted from the Renaissance to the modern age so its styles are Renaissance and Baroque. It is located in the Vatican City in St. Peter's Square. It has a residential as well as a religious cultural function. Its shape is like a cube the base and a hemisphere the dome, so I think it is amazing, original, huge and elegant, since I personally like the classic rather than the modern
