1451 CE

Alberti’s original architectural designs include the Palazzo Rucellai in Florence, constructed in 1446-51 and executed, at least in part, by Bernardo Rossellino.

Its facade is one of the first to proclaim the new ideas of Renaissance architecture based on the use of pilasters and entablatures in proportional relationship to each other.
