dc.descriptionView of campanile only; While building the Collegio di Propaganda Fide, Borromini also worked on the neighbouring monastery church of the Minims, S Andrea delle Fratte. He began building the campanile, the only part of the project he was able to complete, in 1653. It has a high, square base supporting a small, almost completely open tempietto, with a storey above articulated alternately with deep recesses and pairs of angel herms. On top of the campanile is a device comprising four inverted scrolls that frame cartouches bearing the emblems of the Minimite Order and of their patron, Marchese Paolo del Bufalo, the whole surmounted by a spiky crown. In 1660 building work began on the dome, which remained unfinished. Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.groveart.com/ (accessed 12/2/2007)en_US
