The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A keen student of the architecture of Michelangelo and the ruins of Antiquity, Borromini developed an inventive and distinctive, if somewhat idiosyncratic, architecture employing manipulations of Classical architectural forms, geometrical rationales in his plans, and symbolic meanings in his buildings.
- His soft lead drawings are particularly distinctive.
- He seems to have had a sound understanding of structures that perhaps Bernini and Cortona lacked, as they were principally trained in other areas of the visual arts.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Francesco Borromini article was read about 31,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
