| Abstrakt: | San Vittore al Corpo, one of the most singular and intact sixteenth-centuryreligious buildings in Milan, is known for the long discussions about the role of the architects—Galeazzo Alessi, Martino Bassi, Vincenzo Seregni, Pellegrino Pellegrini—whose names recur in the documents of a building site which lasted almost half a century. The constructional aspects have been scarcely considered, although the estimates drawn up at that time are very detailed and correspond essentially to the existing building. The transept and presbytery are covered by a thin masonry vault, upon which the bent tiles (coppi) rest directly. It repeats the vault underneath, pierced by deep lunettes, between reinforcement arches which emerge both in the intrados and the extrados. The case of Sant'Andrea in Mantua, in which the roofing rests directly upon the vault of the nave, gives way here to a variant which has some rare parallels in terrace roofs. |
