Bernardino Maccarucci

Italian architect

In the history of building, Bernardino Maccarucci is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Bernardino Maccarucci as Italian architect.

Bernardino Maccarucci was born at Venice in 1728. His recorded nationality is Republic of Venice.

Baroque and neoclassical building served courts, churches and states, and architecture became an instrument of display.

He is recorded as architect.

An architect is judged by how a building is used a century after the drawings.

That the work was built in Republic of Venice shaped it: climate, materials, planning law and who holds the budget all decide what can actually be built.

Bernardino Maccarucci died in 1798, aged 70. The buildings remain, still in use by people who never knew the name - which is the particular afterlife architecture offers.
