Arco degli Incalzi

Arco degli Incalzi
L'arco, paragonabile ad una fastosa galleria barocca che collega i due palazzi, un tempo era in legno. Infatti, l'originaria struttura in legno a causa della sua precarietà, nel 1750 si preferì rifarla in pietra. Questo passaggio è riportato sull'iscrizione latina posta in alto sul fastigio. Essa recita così: In origine era un ponte in legno; il vescovo Scoppa lo costruì in muratura affinché, a beneficio di quanti temevano di utilizzarlo, il transito fosse meno pericoloso attraverso un percorso sicuro. Nell'anno del Signore 1750 il canonico Cesi pose questa iscrizione.

The arch, comparable to a sumptuous baroque gallery connecting the two buildings, was once made of wood. In fact, the original wooden structure because of its precariousness, in 1750 they preferred to redo it in stone. This passage is shown on the Latin inscription at the top of the fastigium. It reads as follows: Originally it was a wooden bridge; the bishop Scoppa built it in masonry so that, for the benefit of those who feared to use it, the transit was less dangerous through a safe path. In the year of the Lord 1750 Canon Cesi placed this inscription.

Yes this looks like the architecture that I too love to capture. Love the almost golden archway. Now, if only we could sweep that crowd away. (I imagine some of these belonged to your party too Daniela.)

Cheers, Herb

In the four days I was away I saw really a lot of people everywhere, included the trains. I don't think so, Herb, I think it was another party and my was still in the church that is on my shoulders. There were so much :-)) You can see it almost in each photo.
