Biography


Andrea was born in Arcevia in the Marche, the brother of Arcangelo, who was also an architect of note, leaving behind works at Jesi, Arcevia, Fano, Corinaldo, and Cupramontana. At the age of 14, Andrea was given a classical education in mathematics, letters and design by Francesco Appiani at Perugia. At the age of 17 he joined the studio of the painter Cesare Pozzi in Rome, then studied architecture under Carlo Murena. At the age of 26 years, he was recruited by the eminent architect Luigi Vanvitelli to work at the Reggia di Caserta and in the church of the Santissima Annunziata in Naples.
Moving to the Papal states, he became an important architect and engineer. He was named Count and later palatine prince, president of the Pontifical Academy of St Luke in Rome in 1802. In 1804, he was named a member of the Academy of the Arcadia, along with the architect Metastasio of the Sacra Congregazione Lauretana nel 1783. In Rome, he befriended Antonio Canova and was ultimately buried in Santa Maria in Vallicella, Rome.
