Quirinale Palace (Piazza del Quirinale)
Begun in 1573 by Martino Longhi, by commission of Pope Gregory XIII, its construction was continued by Maderno, Bernini, Fontana and, in the eighteenth century, by Ferdinando Fuga. In 1592 it was the residence of Clement VIII and, later, of other pontificates. From 1870 it was the headquarters of the King of Italy and since 1947 as been the official residence of the President of the Republic. The main entrance, the Sala Regia, and the Paolina Chapel are by Maderno; the Chapel of the Annunciation is decorated by frescoes by Guido Reni; the gallery of Alessandro VII is decorated by frescoes completed under the direction of Pietro da Cortona; the vast courtyard is the work of Fontana.
