Filippo Juvarra's Drawings - The coat of arms of Urban VIII by Pietro da Cortona in S. Luca Today the coat of arms in honour of Pope Urban VIII on the façade of S. Luca, the church built by Pietro da Cortona on the primitive church of S. Martina, does not show any longer the three bees of the Barberini. The choice made by Filippo Juvarra lets us see the coat of arms in its original condition. In the background of this page the dome of the church.
