The church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli is located on Corso Vittorio Emanuele in Brescia. The church was initially established to house an icon revered for miraculous powers. The church plan with its cylindrical anterior dome was designed by Ludovico Beretta in 1480-1490. However the most striking element is the elaborately decorated marble reliefs in the façade screen and portico were designed by Giovanni Antonio Amadeo and completed with the help of a large number of sculptors.
