Description
The Church of San Marcos, the last of the great Baroque buildings of Madrid, stands in the old Amaniel district, and is immediately northeast of the Gran Vía and the Edificio de España. San Marcos was designed by Ventura Rodríguez (1717-85), who modeled his plan of five intersecting ellipses on the churches of Bernini and Borromini. The interior, dominated by its central dome, with ceiling-paintings by Roberto Michael and Luís González, is of impressive effect.
