The first architect was _________. He designed a ________, perfectly symmetrical church in the form of a greek cross

He proposed a Greek Cross plan, the centre of which would be surmounted by a dome slightly larger than that of the Pantheon

Superseded Bramante's work when Pope Julius II died in 1513. He strengthened and extended the peristyle of Bramante into a series of arched and ordered openings around the base. In his Hands, the rather delicate form of the lantern, based closely on that in florence, became a massive structure, surrounded by a projecting base, a peristyle and surmounted by a spire of conic form, but the plan was simply too eclectic to be considered.

Superseded the bramante's work together with Guiliano Da Sangallo

The main change in Raphael's plan is the nave of five bays, with a row of complex apsidal chapels off the aisles on either side

Maintained changes that Raphael had proposed to the internal arrangement of the three main apses, but otherwise reverted to the Greek cross plan and other features of bramante. Reverted to greek cross plan

Main practical contribution was to strengthen Bramante's piers which had begun to crack. Slightly altered the plan, Extended vestibule and elaborated the central dome

He reverted to Bramante's original design, the Greek Cross and converted its snowflake complexity into massive, cohesive unity. Strengthened dome and redesigned surrounding chapel

Appointed by Pope Pius V as a watchdog to make sure that Michelangelo's plans were carried out exactly after his death. Added the sided copulas

He subsequently altered Michelangelo's design by adding of lion's masks over the swags on the drum in honor of Pope Sixtus and adding a circlet of finials around the spire at the top of the lantern, as proposed by Sangallo. Also proposed to raise the outer dome higher above the inner one. Designed the dome with Fontana

He completed the dome in 1590

He made the most significant contribution since Michelangelo, because he pulled down the remaining parts of Old St. Peter's and proceeded to transform Michelangelo's centralized Greek-cross design, lengthened the nave to form into a Latin cross, and built a gigantic facade

He was regarded as the greatest architect and sculptor of the Baroque period. Bernini's works at St. Peter's include the baldacchino, the chapel of the Sacrament, the plan for the niches and oggias in the piers of the dome, the chair of St. Peter and erected the noble piazza ( St. Peter's Square) with 284 Ionic columns

__________ won pope julius II della rovere's design contest for the new church. ____ proposed a greek cross plan, the centre of which would be surmounted by a dome slightly larger than that of the Pantheon.

His plan was for a basilica in the form of a Roman Cross with a short pronaos and a facade.

He changed Bramante's plan for a balanced and restful dome into a dynamic construction. He put a drum(ring) at the base of the dome that appears to be squeezing the dome and forcing its sides to spring upwards. He shortened Raphael's nave, but Carlo Maderno added back the nave anf added the famous facade

He made the most significant contribution since Michelangelo, because he pulled down the remaining parts of Old St. Peter's and proceeded to transform Michelangelo's centralized Greek-cross design into a Latin cross with a long nave.

This extension of the basilica was undoubtedly necessary from the point of view of practical requirements, but it destroyed Michelangelo's great conception and substituted something less impressive, since the great dome can no longer be appreciated from every point of view.

• As a result of these alterations, _________ had to design a facade which would not detract too much from the dome and, at the same time, would be worthy of its setting and also contain a central feature, the Benediction Loggia, to provide a frame for the figure of the pope when he appeared in public.

• These conflicting requirements were met as far as possible by_________ adaptation of a typical Roman palace facade, with decorative motifs taken from Michelangelo's works.

• The plan to provide bell towers at the ends to enframe the dome in distant views had to be abandoned because the foundations gave trouble. The work, including the decoration, was completed on Nov. 18, 1626.

The facade designed by ______, is _________ wide and _________ high. It is built of travertine stone, with a giant order of Corinthian columns and a central pediment rising in front of a tall attic surmounted by thirteen statues: Chrust flanked by eleven of the apostles (except peterm whose statue is left of the stairs) and John the baptist.

Several architects made their changes to the architectural plan fromt he time that pope nicholas V(1447-55) decided to rebuild and the completion of the church in 1626 during the reign of Pope Urban VIII. The facade is by __________

The church was given an impressive setting by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, one of its architects.
An avenue almost 1.5 kilometers long leads from the Tiber River to the Piazza Di San Pietro (Square Of St. Peter), a large open space in front of the church.
A red granite obelisk (shaft) stands 26 meters high in the piazza’s centre. It was brought to Rome from Egypt about A.D. 37, and was moved to the piazza in 1586.
The Piazza which was completed in 1667, contains two fountains and two colonnades (rows of columns) arranged in semicircles on opposite sides of the Piazza.

architecture by Michelangelo Bonaroti, facade by Carlo Maderno, porticos by Bernini, dome initiated by Michelangelo Della Porta, and the spire [on] top of the dome by Fontana.

The interior of the church is decorated in Baroque style.
Bernini, who was also a sculptor, created many of its famous features in the 1650s.
He built the elaborate bronze baldacchino (canopy) over the main altar, which stands beneath the dome. It closes the extremely long sweep of the nave and is 95 Ft. high.
As may be seen in the accompanying plan, the four principal divisions of the basilica extend from the dome and are connected with each other by passages behind the dome piers.
To the right and to the left of the nave lie the smaller and lower aisles, the right of which is bordered by four lateral chapels, the left by three chapels and the passage to the roof.

first work at St. Peter's was to design the baldacchino, a pavilion-like structure 30 metres (98 ft) tall and claimed to be the largest piece of bronze in the world, which stands beneath the dome and above the altar. Its design is based on the ciborium, of which there are many in the churches of Rome, serving to create a sort of holy space above and around the table on which the Sacrament is laid for the Eucharist and emphasizing the significance of this ritual. These ciboria are generally of white marble, with inlaid coloured stone.

concept was for something very different. He took his inspiration in part from the baldachin or canopy carried above the head of the pope in processions, and in part from the eight ancient columns that had formed part of a screen in the old basilica. Their twisted barel-y-sugar shape had a special significance as the form to which Jesus was bound before his crucifixion was believed to be of that shape.

Based on these columns, _______created four huge columns of bronze, twisted and decorated with olive leaves and bees, which were the emblem of Pope Urban.

The general decoration consists of colored marble incrustations, stucco figures, rich gilding, mosaic decoration, and marble figures on the pilasters, ceiling, and walls.
The paneling of the pavement in geometric figures is of colored marble after the designs of Giacomo della Porta and Bernini.
Beneath it is the Confession of St. Peter, where the body of the Prince of Apostles reposes – the tomb of St. Peter’s.
No chairs or pews obstruct the view; the eye roves freely over the glittering surface of the marble pavement, where there is room for thousands of people.

a fresco in the Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo (1534–41), came under persistent attack in the Counter-Reformation for, among other things, nudity (later painted over for several centuries), not showing Christ seated or bearded, and including the pagan figure of Charon.
