Michelangelo returned to Bramante's Greek cross plan with 5 domes, but Carlo Maderno added a long nave extending into a Latin cross. The massive dome by Michelangelo towers over the interior and the Baroque interior includes Bernini's bronze baldacchino over the main altar.

PISA CATHEDRAL COMPLEX new.pptx
Romanesque architecture developed in Europe during the Middle Ages following the decline of Barbarian invasions. The Pisa Cathedral Complex in Italy, built between the 11th-14th centuries, is a prime example featuring the Pisa Cathedral, Leaning Tower of Pisa (campanile), Baptistery, cemetery, and other structures. The complex demonstrates the Romanesque style through its use of rounded arches, arcades, marble construction, and sculptures. The Leaning Tower gained its tilt due to unstable foundations beneath its eight stories of galleries. The Baptistery contains important works by Nicola and Giovanni Pisano.

- 1. THE SANCTUARY OF SANTA MARIA DEL MONTE The statue of Our Lady was solemnly crowned on July 5, 1739 in the Sanctuary of Santa Maria del Monte. Entering the Basilica, a small door and a few steps lead to the chapel of the two Beata Caterina da Pallanza and Giuliana da Verghera (Busto Arsi- zio), two hermits who lived in penitence in a cave at the seventh Chapel, in the second half of the fifteenth century, before commencing their life in the cloistered Augustinian Monastery, which was founded in 1476.

- 2. A devotional place: The Holy Way The Sanctuary of the Sacro Monte of Varese is one of the most important of the Sacri Monti, which are acknowled- ged as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Located at a height of 883 m a.s.l., the Sanctuary is the culmination of a route taken by the faithful up the slopes of Monte Velate. The construction of the “Holy Way” was started in 1604 by the Capuchin friar Giovanni Battista Aguggiari, who decided to erect 14 chapels dedicated to the Mysteries of the Rosary along a 2 kilometre-long cobbled path through a great wood of beech, chestnut and ha- zel. THE CHAPELS The 14 chapels each have a portico of a different design, and are embellished with statues and frescoes by the major Lombard artists of the 17th century, including the local artist Pier Francesco Mazzucchelli, called “il Morazzone” after his native village; he was apprenti- ced in Rome in the studio of Cavalier D’Arpino, who at that time was the teacher of Caravaggio. The Chapels, like the mysteries of the Rosary, are divided into groups of five by three fountains and three triumphal arches, and introduce pilgrims to the Mysteries that accom- pany them along the route. The artistic styles of the large number of frescoes in the chapels range from Mannerism to Baroque, maintaining a continuity and consistency with the sacred purpose and faith typical of a pilgrimage. In 1983 Monsignor Pasquale Macchi asked Renato Guttuso to paint a con- temporary version of the Flight into Egypt and his acrylic painting can be seen on the outside wall of the chapel of the Nativity.
