Juan,
Sorry for the late reply, very fe...Dear Fr. Juan,<br /> <br />Sorry for the late reply, very few people tend to look for the treasures that early Renaissance Rome has to offer, for that, I'd like to direct you to the two churches on the Janiculum Hill, Sant'Onofrio al Gianicolo and San Pietro in Montorio, as for most churches in Rome, they have later Baroque additions, though the structure remains the original 15th century one, they have fantastic works by Pintoricchio, Baldassarre Peruzzi and the very Roman, Antoniazzo Romano and his School. You may read more here: http://romananglican.blogspot.com/2015/09/san-pietro-in-montorio-and-santonofrio.html - may I also redirect you to my map of Renaissance churches or churches with Renaissance artworks or features in Rome? http://romananglican.blogspot.com/2014/11/a-map-of-renaissance-churches-in-rome.html - you may follow the Antoniazzo Romano or Pinturicchio trail in Rome or opt for the great Renaissance chapels in Santa Maria sopra Minerva, Santa Maria del Popolo or Santa Maria in Aracoeli as well, the Carafa, Della Rovere and Bufalini chapels there won't be easily accessible, but you'll get a good view from outside (I have written articles here about each of them), they're the best examples of 15th century Renaissance in Rome - also do not neglect the tiny jewels either! Finally, do follow Antoniazzo Romano's trail - he was Rome's own and only Renaissance master. Do get back in case you need further assistance. Hope your trip goes well. <br /><br />With all best wishes,<br /><br />EdoardoEdoardo Fanfanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03462749996843294835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984671428242717974.post-1850651275459143362019-10-03T01:54:07.061+02:002019-10-03T01:54:07.061+02:00Dear Edoardo,
Thanks for such a wonderful blog!!...Dear Edoardo,<br /> Thanks for such a wonderful blog!!! I am taking a group of 18 people to Rome next April to study the development of worship in relation to architecture. One of the mornings we hope to dedicate to the early renaissance, the next to the high renaissance. High Renaissance is pretty easy in Rome. But do you have any suggestions for early renaissance worship spaces? (The Sistine Chapel is out since people will visit it as part of the Museums). I'd be grateful for any leads.<br />blessings,<br /><br />The Rev. Dr. Juan MC OliverJuan Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03343202897355444037noreply@blogger.com
