Bregno Andrea

San Pietro

In his many works in Rome, Bregno gave an interpretation of Florentine forms in a serene, soberly ornamented classicism, creating with them the models of a taste that spread throughout Italy. Into the firm definition and scansion of the images composed within noble architecture, whose decoration finely accompanies the structure, there enters a full-bodied force of realistic definition that reveals the artist's Lombard cultural origin. And when the decorative element is not overabundant, the sculpture lives with a robust dignity.
