About Giuseppe Piermarini
- Giuseppe Piermarini (Italian pronunciation: [d?u'z?ppe ?pj?rma'ri?ni]; 18 July 1734 – 18 February 1808) was an Italian architect who trained with Luigi Vanvitelli in Rome and designed the Teatro alla Scala in Milan (1776–78), which remains the work by which he is remembered.
- Indeed, "il Piermarini" serves as an occasional euphemism for the celebrated opera house.
- Piermarini was appointed professor in the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera, better known as Brera Academy, Milan, when it was formally founded in 1776.
