Pietro Camporese the Younger

Pietro Camporese the Younger (1792–1873) was an Italian neoclassical architect. He was the grandson of the architect Pietro Camporese the Elder.

From 1825 Camporese worked with Pasquale Belli on the reconstruction of the Basilica of San Paolo fuori-le-mura after it was damaged by fire. He also was responsible for the Teatro Argentina in Rome.[1]

One of his major commissions was the Palazzo Wedekind in Rome.
