Antonio da Sangallo the Younger belongs to the record of technology as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.
The record lists Antonio da Sangallo the Younger as Italian architect (1484–1546).
Antonio da Sangallo the Younger was born at Florence in 1484. His recorded nationality is Italy.
This was the period in which observation began to outrank inherited authority, and printing let work reach readers who would never meet its author.
Antonio da Sangallo the Younger is described as architect, wood carver and engineer.
His principal work is Cappella Paolina. The engineer's achievement usually disappears into infrastructure, which is the point.
That the work was done from Italy matters. Opportunity has never been evenly distributed, and where a person is based shapes which doors open and whose work gets seen.
Death came in 1546, at 62. By then the contribution had passed into the settled record.
