Facing the Elements - Visualizing Weather Then, Climate Now

This publication presents an updated catalogue raisonné of Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s architectural drawings, expanding the foundational edition published in German by Heinrich Brauer and Rudolf Wittkower in 1931 and here translated into English for the first time. By complementing the original text with essays based on more recent studies of the drawings and monuments, this work will prove essential for anyone interested in Bernini.
