The Library in St. Mark’s Square in Venice was designed and built by Jacopo Sansovino, between 1537 and 1588, when it was completed by Vincenzo Scamozzi.
It houses a museum of Roman antiquities and the National Marciana Library, which contains over 750,000 volumes.
This little temple was one of the earliest Renaissance experiments to rediscover the lost art of Roman building. Designed by Donato Bramante in 1502, it still exists in the courtyard of a church in Rome, San Pietro Montorio.

The Villa Rotunda, outside Vicenza, is considered by many to be the finest of Palladio’s many masterpieces.
Also known as the Villa Capra, after a later owner, the work was completed in 1571 by Vincenzo Scamozzi, who finished it with a shallower dome than Palladio intended.
