Sangallo, the Younger (Antonio Cordiani da) 1483-1546

This Sangallo was a nephew of the other Antonio, and a pupil of Bramante’s. After Raphael’s death he became the leading architect of St. Peter’s. The fortress at Cività Vecchia is his work. In Rome he planned the outer gardens of the Vatican and built the right-hand chapel in S. Giacomo degli Spagnuoli, the beautiful Palazzo Marchionne Baldassini, the Palazzo Sacchetti, and the greater part of the Palazzo Farnese.
