San Carlo al Corso, Rome

The first plan for the Milanese national church in Rome, San Carlo al Corso) was made by Onorio Longhi. The construction was completed by his son and by Pietro da Cortona. The façade was designed by Cardinal Luigi Alessandro Omodei (1607-1685), who did not like the project prepared by Carlo Rainaldi.
