The Wilno variety is characterized by very simple church layouts, usually just rectangular, with only optionally a chancel apse and a transept. The very beauty and the very complexity, as well as the genuine quality of this character consists in a special elaboration of generally two-towered façades, in the use of undulating openings in windows, portals, tower spans, and in placing extremely elaborate altars inside the churches. According to the author there are two major creators of this particular variety - their works served as models for the whole array of followers and local architects: Guido Antonio Longhi (1691-1751) and Antonio Paracca (1722-ca.1790).
