Talk:List of Baroque architecture

San Pietro is not baroque
The article on Renaissance Architecture indicates that Saint Peter's Cathedral is High Rennaissance Architecture. The article on Baroque Architecture considers the cathedral as a precursor of baroque. Why would it the qualify for a list of baroque buildings, especially as (according to Wikipedia) the baroque was developed in the 17th century. May I please delete it from the baroque list without being considered a vandal?--Afil 20:52, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * When the Basilica was begun by Bramante in 1503, it was a centrally-planned High Renaissance structure. After Bramante's death, it was continued by Michelangelo, the nave was lengthened into a dramatic vista by Carlo Maderno, and the final result contains many eye-catching features of the Baroque, such as Bernini's baldacchino, and much Baroque sculpture, as well as the rich polychromy of the marble revetment. --Wetman 17:40, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
