The years from 1520 to 1630 were crucial to the development of
Western architecture, but to reduce the transition from
Michelangelo's 'licentious' New Sacristy in Florence to Borromini's
innovative S. Carlo alle Quattro Fontane to the label 'mannerist'
is coming to seem simplistic. In this freshly researched and
original study, Andrew Hopkins stresses the variety of ideas being
tried out at this time in response to the changing demands of
function, patronage, politics and local traditions, exploring a
wide range of Italian buildings (including those outside the major
centres), and introducing dozens of neglected architects whose
works will come as a revelation. By 1630, a consensus had emerged
and architecture took on a new dynamism that would soon conquer
Italy, Europe and the New World: the Baroque.
