port san already sant'antonio sent on November 07, 2016 (9:55) by Annamaria Pertosa. 82 comments, 1709 views.

E' l'arco di trionfo nonché il simbolo del barocco martinese che introduce nel borgo antico. La porta faceva parte dell'antico sistema difensivo medievale, era detta Ianua Antiqua e si trovava spostata poco più a sud. Il suo aspetto era quello di una porta turrificata. L'attuale collocazione fu dovuta alla riedificazione della porta nel XVIII secoloe il nome fu tratto dalla chiesa di fronte, dedicata allora a Santo Stefano. La porta fu costruita grazie al denaro pubblico nel 1764, come riporta chiaramente il cartiglio. Stilisticamente la parte più ricercata è quella della cimasa che è delineata da linee morbide e ondulate. Lateralmente spiccano due fiaccoloni che si sollevano su due serpentine schiacciate. Questo sarà un motivo molto ricorrente nella decorazione barocca di Martina.? In alto alla cimasa curvilinea è collocata la statua di San Martino, patrono della città, in atteggiamento belligerante. La statua celebra, secondo una leggenda, l'apparizione miracolosa del santo sulla cinta muraria, seguito da uno stuolo di cavalieri, quando, il 16 giugno del 1529, fece fuggire i cosiddetti cappelletti, mercenari al soldo di Fabrizio Maramaldo, che assediavano la città da diversi giorni. Secondo la leggenda la città fu salva grazie all'intervento prodigioso di San Martino e di Sant'Antonio da Padova che seguiva da dietro il santo patrono. Negli anni quaranta l'arco fu smontato e rimontato e da allora sulla controfacciata dell'arco che si affaccia in piazza Roma, furono collocate le statue litiche della Madonna con bambino e angeli oranti che di sicuro avevano un'altra collocazione in origine. Oggi la porta è detta anche porta di Sant'Antonio in riferimento alla chiesa di san Antonio che prima era intitolata a Santo Stefano. Sotto l'arco c'è una lapide in ricordo della visita del papa Giovanni Paolo II nel 1989. Critiche e commenti sempre super graditi. Grazie.

Hello Anna, I think the photos beautiful breasts in both versions, the color brings us back to reality, the b / n the days that were, however, in pp would clean the sky, surely in the color version, for the b / w, it depends on what you want to achieve, so-oxidant "postcard", still beautiful, but personally I would have preferred a b / n with clear skies, and with a better grayscale. Best wishes, Rodema. ;-)

this photo (very well crafted, actually) certifies questionable taste and incompetrenza certain "interior" of our modern "treasures" (monuments, squares etc.) the usefulness of planting a row of trees (those on the right) just do not understand, the "crown" of the same with their foliage, substantially hides the work .....: -o
bah ... valleys to understand ... like three trees solved the problems of pollution ....
still beautiful pictures, Annamaria, depth of field and light ok!
ciauuuzz Mario

I prefer to color, softer edges and less stressed
I see the lightly striped sky (strange clouds or banding?) and slightly edges of buildings "haloed"
a warm greeting :-)

Clara, you're absolutely right, banding the sky in black and white is due to an excess of contrast. Already remedied, but do not know how I can replace it without losing your comments. Thank you for having accepted the invitation, expressing your preference. Gracious as always, a big thank you.
Good evening, hello
Annamaria :-P

. In fact there is no way to do the replacement. In such cases I put the correct version in the comments. Hello!

Rodema, I fully agree with what dici.Purtroppo for black and white I ran my hand on the contrast. I have already taken steps to clean the air by the effect banning, but expect a friend of mine, let me see how to ripostarla between the comments, because you can not replace it. Thanks for the appreciation and always welcome visit.
A dear greeting
Annamaria :-P

Rodema, yet heartfelt thanks, dear friend. The captions, in my humble opinion, are essential to understand what place this is, and a minimum of history.
A good evening, hello
Annamaria :-P
