Built between 1521 and 1534 by Giuliano Giamberti, also known as Giuliano da Sangallo, this architectural masterpiece seamlessly blends elements of High Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles. Its imposing structure served as a military stronghold and defensive fortification for centuries. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are drawn into a bustling street scene below.
