Rucellai Sepulchre
Leon Battista Alberti · Florence, Italy · 1467
Inside the former church of San Pancrazio, Alberti designed a miniature marble-clad Holy Sepulchre whose geometric inlay and strict proportional logic transform a small funerary monument into a concentrated architectural manifesto. Its intimate scale makes it a particularly rewarding companion to Palazzo Rucellai only a short walk away.
