Monument
Arnolfo di Cambio, in the niche beside Brunelleschi
Piazza del Duomo · Florence, Italy
The cathedral was Arnolfo's design — he began it in 1296, more than a century before Brunelleschi solved the dome. They sit in matching niches on the south wall now: Arnolfo holding his plans, Brunelleschi a few metres along, looking up at the result. He doesn't get the same crowd.

Monument
Brunelleschi looking up at his own dome
Piazza del Duomo · Florence, Italy
Seated in a niche on the south side of the cathedral, eyes tilted up. He's looking at the dome he designed, which sits directly across the piazza.
