Italy - Apricale, Chiesa della Purificazione di Maria Vergine

Italy - Apricale, Chiesa della Purificazione di Maria Vergine
The Chiesa della Purificazione di Maria Vergine (Church of the Purification of the Virgin Mary) is the parish church of Apricale. The church - built in the 13th century - is located in the heart of the centre of the perched medieval village.

The church was restored several times and today it appears in baroque style with a neo-Romanesque façade. The interior is composed of three naves divided in two rows of four pillars each. Inside the vaults, in 1904, painter Leonida Martini frescoed floral patterns and images of saints.

The bell tower of the church is remarkable with a bicycle facing upwards. This contemporary artwork of Sergio Bianco symbolizes the power of non-gravity. I must admit that I had not seen the artwork during my visit. But a photo of Nora Caracci pointed me to this unusual tower.

Mikus, Maria Lovasz, Horizon 36, Leo W and 34 other people have particularly liked this photo

Prachtvoll! Aber das "zeitgenössische Kunstwerk" halte ich für einen Witz wie in dem Märchen von des Kaisers neuen Kleidern..

A very aesthetic neo-baroque, which the luminosity enhances nicely.
A masterful main photo; complementary photos are informative and beautiful.
