Personal sketches of travel in Italy
There's no better source of inspiration than an architect's sketchbook. Whether sketching onsite or quickly visualizing a design idea, a sketchbook records your thoughts and captures the essence of what you find most important about your subject matter. The following presents a series of images captured while visiting several important monuments during travels abroad.
Elephant Obelisk, Piazza Minerva called 'Pulcino della Minerva' by Gian Lorenzo Bernini
Pantheon in Piazza Della Rotunda commissioned by emperor Marcus Agrippa
Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi or Fountain of the Four Rivers (1651) by Gian Lorenzo Bernini
The Spanish Steps (Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti) leading to the Trinità dei Monti church by either Francesco de Sanctis or Alessandro Specchi
Trevi Fountain with Pietro Bracci's Oceanus (god of all water) by Nicola Salvi
