ARCHITECTURE
It is probable that Cellini did make some experi-
ments in architecture, as is evidenced by his plans for
the fountains at Fontainebleau, and in the Piazza at
Florence. Moreover, he tells us that he was at various
periods of his life consulted regarding fortifications. But
we do not know of any special architectural work still in
existence that may be attributed to him.
ARMS AND ARMOUR
In Cellini's we find but few references to arms or
armour made by him or in his workshop. The following
are all the articles of this nature that are recorded in
connection with him.
