Alessio Tramello

Italian Renaissance architect who worked mainly in and around Piacenza, and was strongly influenced by the architecture of Bramante. He designed the Piacenza Churches of San Sisto (1499–1514—with a barrel-vaulted coffered nave resembling Alberti's Sant'Andrea, Mantua) and San Sepolcro (from 1513—with alternate square and rectangular nave-bays). He was responsible for the centrally planned Church of the Madonna di Campagna, Piacenza (1522–6), on a Greek-cross plan, with forms clearly derived from Bramante's work. He was also involved in the building of the Steccata, Parma (begun 1521) to designs by Giovanni Francesco Zaccagni (1491–1543).
