Paper Summary:

This art study examines the San Pietro Piazza through the work of the famous architect and sculptor, Gianlorenzo Bernini. By understanding the classical return to Roman architecture in this massive piazza, one can realize the growing sense of domination that Bernini's architecture offers for the Vatican. The issues of Roman culture were of major interest in the design of this piazza, as Pope Urban VIII and Innocent X sought a greater return to the ancient powers of Rome in previous eras.
