Lonely Planet review for Santa Maria Presso San Satiro

Here’s an escape from the Zara/Benneton/H&M maelstrom. Ludovico Sforza saw potential in this little church built on top of the 9th-century mausoleum of martyr San Satiro, and asked architect Donato Bramante to refurb in 1482. His ambition wasn’t dampened by the project’s scale: a trompe-l’oeil coffered niche on the shallow apse makes the backdrop to the altar mimic the Pantheon in Rome.
