Filarete of Crema (c. 1400-1469): Italian architect, sculptor, and writer, renowned for his innovative designs and visionary ideas. Known as the "architect of the impossible," Filarete's most famous work is the "Le Marmo Funebre," a grandiose tomb for Pope Sisto IV, filled with intricate sculptures and architectural models. His treatise, "Libro dell'Architettura," outlines his theories on urban planning, architecture, and the ideal city, which influenced the development of Renaissance architecture. Filarete's designs, characterized by grand scale, intricate detail, and harmony between art and nature, continue to inspire architects and artists today.
