Bramantes Pergamentplan: Eine Architekturzeichnung Im Kontext Wissenschaftlicher Kontroversen

The planning history of St. Peter's in Rome at the beginning of the 16th century has been an important topic of art historical research since the 19th century. The so-called parchment plan by Donato Bramante, which has only been preserved as a draft fragment, is the focus of the scientific investigations. In the present study, this plan is comprehensively analyzed and placed in a historical context with other text- and image-materials, ranging from architectural precursors from the late antique imperial period to the baroque planning phase of St. Peter's in the 17th century. On the basis of various scientific approaches, the fundamental question should be answered as to whether the parchment plan was a central- or longitudinal- building.
