High Renaissance Architecture Renaissance architecture is the
architecture of the period between the early 15th and early 17th centuries in different regions of Europe, demonstrating a conscious revival and development of certain elements of ancient Greek and Roman thought and material culture. Stylistically, Renaissance architecture followed Gothic achitecture and was succeeded by Baroque architecture.
High Renaissance Architecture High Renaissance style in
architecture conventionally begins with Donato Bramante,
St. Peter’s Basilica
Donato Bramante
Donato Bramante Donato Bramante was
an Italian architect, who introduced Renaissance architecture to Milan and the High Renaissance style to Rome, where his plan for St. Peter's Basilica formed the basis of design executed by Michelangelo.
Bramante’s Plan
Raphael
Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino “Raphael” was
an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance.
His work is admired for its clarity of form, ease of composition, and visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur.
Raphael’s Plan
Baldassare Peruzzi 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.
Antonio d Sangallo the Younger submitted a plan which combines
features of Peruzzi, Raphael and Bramante in its design and extends the building into a short nave with a wide façade and portico of dynamic projection.
Michelangelo
Michelangelo was an Italian sculptor, painter,
architect, poet, and engineer of the High Renaissance who exerted an unparalleled influence on the development of Western art.
