Jan Santini Aichel (1677-1723) was a Czech architect that stylizes in Baroque Gothic architecture. A major influence for him was Francesco Borromini, which is apparent in Aichel's star-shaped forms and complex symbolism. He died at a young age of 46, and therefore some of his works remain unfinished.
Here are a few of his works:
|
Interior of the Cistercian Monastery in Plasy |
|
Monastery Church of the Assumption of Virgin Mary |
|
Church of St. Wenceslas in Zvole
