Galeazzo Alessi

architect

In the history of technology, Galeazzo Alessi is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Galeazzo Alessi as architect.

Galeazzo Alessi was born at Perugia in 1512. 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.

The record gives his occupations as architect.

Among his principal works are San Barnaba Church and Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli. Technical work compounds - each layer makes the next one cheaper to attempt.

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.

Galeazzo Alessi died in 1573 at the age of 61. The work outlived the arguments around it.
