San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (via del Quirinale)
Commonly known as San Carlino, this tiny seventeenth-century church, planned by Borromini, is situated near Sant'Andrea al Quirinale. The monastery and the chapel were built first, then the church, on an oval design, white with very few decorations. The facade was begun in 1669, two years after the death of Borromini, according to his designs. It shows a play of concave and convex surfaces that defies traditional style. |
