Francesco Borromini
Francesco Borromini, named after Francesco Castelli, is an Italian architect born in the modern Swiss state of Ticino, along with his contemporaries Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Pietro da Cortona, who are leading figure in the emergence of Roman Baroque architecture. As a student passionate about the architecture of Michelangelo and the ruins of Antiquity, Borromini developed an innovative and distinctive architecture that, albeit somewhat stylistic, using the manipulation of figures. Classical architectural knowledge, justifies geometry in its plans and symbolic meanings in its buildings. He seems to have a very good understanding of structure, something Bernini and Cortona probably lacked at Bernini and Cortona, who were mainly trained in the other fields of visual arts. His soft lead designs are very special. He seemed to be a self-taught scholar, amassing a large library by the end of his life. His career was limited by his personality.
