## Bio

Born in 1556 in what is now Ticino, Switzerland, Maderno worked in Italy at the hinge between Renaissance reserve and Baroque drama. His façade for Santa Susanna became a template, but the commission that secured his name was St. Peter's: he extended Michelangelo's plan and designed the front that still dominates the square. Sant'Andrea della Valle followed, another anchoring work in Rome's transformation. He died on 31 January 1629, leaving a city reshaped and a style that would sweep Europe.
