St. CAMILLO DE LELLIS


S. CAMILLO DE LELLIS
1906/10 Tullio Passarelli (1869/1941) for S. Pius X Sarto (1903/14)

“He introduces a design dimension in the Roman climate different from the pompous eclectic baroque triumphing in his time. Topics covered are all of great commitment and include churches in the immediate vicinity of the center of Rome, schools, convents and the building to the Stock Exchange of Rome in Piazza di Pietra. These works reveal a plastic research, a linguistic simplification, great attention in their insertion in the environment, making them works of high level” (Sergio Lenci)

Romanesque Revival style
S. Camillo de Lellis (1550/1614) from the Abruzzo region was the founder of the Order of Clerks Regular Ministers to the Sick, also known as Camilliani and he is the patron saint of the sick, nurses and hospitals
