Talk:Donato Bramante

"Lazzari"

Can somebody please illuminate the public as to the surname often attributed to him: Lazzari?

Thhere's no mention of it in the article, but there should be, precisely because it IS still attributed to him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.61.38.43 (talk) 23:37, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Bramante and Raphael

There's no mention that Bramante was taken off the St Peters project when the Pope died, and replaced by Sangallo, Giocondo and Raphael. Raphael and Bramante were related (exactly how I'm not sure). Sangallo and Giocondo died a couple of years later, and Raphael then had the sole running, until his own early death. -- JackofOz (talk) 07:31, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

None of those guys contributed to the end product in the way that Michelangelo did. Michelangelo maintained the most basic elements of Bramante's plan, but changed the structure enormously. As it stands, the whole of the western end (dome, transepts, chancel) speaks more of Michelangelo than Bramante. Helen Gardner's statement about Michelangelo changing the "snowflake complexity" for a coherent whole sums it up very well. Amandajm (talk) 07:07, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

This seemed the short way to bring tharticle more in line with the Italian wikipedia article. For example, see the Article on the Pantheon of Paris for the importance of the Tempietto. The answer is to provide it something of the place it has in the Italian version of wp. G. Robert Shiplett 10:20, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

I don't advise doing this sort of edit (removing the sources). In the early days of WP the current inline referencing system was not in place, and even long after it was, these were not required or usual as they are now. Your assumption that references only given at the bottom were not used is very likely to be wrong - this was an entirely respecatable way of doing things. Rather than adding tags and removing things, it is a good deal more constructive to pull up your sleeves and actually improve the content - this is a rather pathetically short article on a very major figure, and sources as good or better than those given are easily found.
