Datos arquitectónicos de wikipedia:
Estilo Arquitectura renacentista
Materiales Travertino, ladrillo y estuco

En 1500 la Congregazione dei Fornari había obtenido del papa Alejandro VI una pequeña capilla que fue demolida para construir la actual iglesia. La obra, diseñada por Antonio da Sangallo el Joven, se inició en 1507. La iglesia está construida en ladrillo y travertino y es notable por la gran belleza de proporciones y el efecto noble que produce de manera muy sencilla. El orden inferior es de planta cuadrada, la parte superior es octogonal y el conjunto está coronado por una elegante cúpula y una alta linterna —llamada la «jaula de los grillos» (Gabbia dei grilli)—, erigidas más tarde (1582) por Giacomo Del Duca, discípulo de Miguel Ángel. Sobre el ojo del tambor correspondiente a la entrada principal se muestra la fecha MDXCIII (1596), presumiblemente para indicar la terminación de la obra.

En el siglo xix la iglesia fue restaurada por Luca Carimini, añadiéndose la rectoría, obra de Giuseppe Sacconi el arquitecto del Vittoriano (1867-1873).

Architectural data from wikipedia:
Renaissance architecture style
Materials Travertine, brick and stucco

In 1500 the Congregazione dei Fornari had obtained from Pope Alexander VI a small chapel that was demolished to build the current church. The work, designed by Antonio da Sangallo the Younger, began in 1507. The church is built in brick and travertine and is remarkable for the great beauty of its proportions and the noble effect it produces in a very simple way. The lower order is square in plan, the upper part is octagonal and the whole is crowned by an elegant dome and a tall lantern —called the "cage of crickets" (Gabbia dei grilli)—, erected later (1582) by Giacomo Del Duca, disciple of Michelangelo. On the eye of the drum corresponding to the main entrance the date MDXCIII (1596) is shown, presumably to indicate the completion of the work.

In the 19th century the church was restored by Luca Carimini, adding the rectory, the work of Giuseppe Sacconi, the Vittoriano architect (1867-1873).
