Abstract
(b Florence, Dec 6, 1727; d Florence, Feb 19, 1813). Italian architect and teacher. He studied drawing with the sculptor Vincenzo Foggini (fl 1736–55) and then studied architecture under Bernardino Ciurini (1695–1752) and Ferdinando Ruggieri. Paoletti established a lasting association with Giuseppe Ruggieri (d 1772), whom he assisted on a project for the baths (1744–62) at San Giuliano Terme, near Pisa. Close compositional affinities with the Palazzo della Misericordia at San Giuliano Terme (ashlar portico and quoins, small loggia at piano nobile level featuring a Serliana) identify the first work attributed to Paoletti, the Casino dei Nobili (c. 1750), Pisa. In 1761 he won the competition for the façade of the church of S Vincenzo dei Teatini, Modena, with a project inspired by the façade of S Giovannino dei Gesuiti (later degli Scolopi; 1579), Florence, by Bartolomeo Ammannati. Paoletti then went to Parma, which was at that time the centre of the dissemination of French architectural styles, and then visited Rome....
