Industry Reviews An analysis of two chapels and an altar, designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini between 1664 and 1675, that shows how Bernini created a bel composto, or beautiful whole, uniting architecture with sculpture and painting. A revision of the author's doctoral thesis at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes in Paris, the analysis focuses on the way unity is created from the heterogeneous elements of a work of art.
