every time i think about Borromini my heart aches he was truly a genius with his architecture but obviously he had some sort of bipolar disorder and even years after his death every article about him calls him "unhappy" or "mad"
also i know how depressed constantly being compared to someone who is more charismatic / outgoing when youre an introverted outsider can make you.. i cry at the thought of him mostly being mentioned now when put against Bernini when it was likely one of the major causes behind his death
he is genuinely my roman empire of architecture history...
