Biography
He was born in Lucca, Tuscany, and ordained a priest in his hometown. He studied at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome, where he taught architecture and prospective.[2] In his time he traveled much of Europe, spanning from within Italy, to Austria, Bohemia, Moravia, Poland and the Netherlands. Not as well known as his contemporaries, he often worked with Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach and Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt.
His influence on the Baroque style was notable in his work Stadtpalais Liechtenstein (Town Palace), in Vienna (1692–1705), which glorifies an elaborate staircase, derived from Bernini's Chigi-Odescalchi Palace, in Rome. He designed the Palais Harrach, Gartenpalais (Garden Palace), and the Kaunitz Palace, in Slavkov (Austerlitz). He introduced the cour d'honneur in the latter.[3] In his later years after teaching at San Luca Academy, he struggled with illness and returned to his home town of Lucca where he died.[4]
