QA710 - The Piazza Campidoglio in Rome.
Fig. 710 (p. 859) - This revolutionary design of the egg-shaped Piazza Campidoglio was given by Michelangelo around 1636/37. However, this plan was not executed, due to the death of Pope Paul III in 1649. In stead, an oval and circular design with eighth spokes covered the piazza in the intermediate years until 1940. In that year Mussolini decided to recreate Michelangelo original design with twelve stars.
