I am going to show you some pictures I took on my trip to Rome this summer. Yeah, I know it’s a really common subject, but being an architecture student and travelling to Rome with my collegues and teachers, I spent the whole day just walking around town looking for the buildings I learnt about in school, searching for the images I had to draw during the exams and being mesmerized at every single corner by Rome’s magical atmosphere and enormous history.
What I enjoyed the most in Rome, and what I found really interesting were the amazing cloisters and atriums dating from the XII century up to the XXI century. From Bramante’s cloister from Santa Maria della Pace to Michelangelo’s cloister from Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri, from Borromini’s atrium from Sant’Ivo alla Sapienza to the famous portico from the Mussolinian Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, every single one of them was absolutely fascinating.
Now, I will let you discover which photo is from which iconic building!
Lovely pictures! Some of those columns look very similar to the Manueline style found in Portugal. You should go when you get a chance, you will love it!
Thank you so much! Portugal is actually on my bucket list, so I can't wait to get there!
