Michelangelo’s designs for St. Peter’s, Rome: plan, 1547; dome, 1590.

Hint 2

His dome, like that of Florence, is constructed of two shells of brick, the outer one having 16 stone ribs, twice the number at Florence but far fewer than in Sangallo's design. As with the designs of Bramante and Sangallo, the dome is raised from the piers on a drum.The encircling peristyle of Bramante and the arcade of Sangallo are reduced to 16 pairs of Corinthian columns, each of 15 metres (49 ft) high which stand proud of the building, connected by an arch.the dome is ovoid in shape, rising steeply as does the dome of Florence Cathedral. Precipitated the baroque ideal of Bel Composto
