Ragusa Ibla Il progetto di Rosario Gagliardi, di cui si conservano le tavole originali, è caratterizzato dalla monumentale facciata a torre che ingloba il campanile nel prospetto e termina con una cuspide a bulbo, richiamando i tabernacoli lignei, seicenteschi, delle chiese cappuccine. La collocazione della chiesa al termine di un'alta scalinata e la posizione obliqua rispetto alla piazza sottostante accentuano l'imponenza e gli effetti plastici, creati da una lieve convessità del partito centrale e dalla presenza delle colonne libere. Due coppie di volute fanno da raccordo tra i diversi livelli ospitando, rispettivamente, le statue di San Giorgio e San Giacomo in basso, e quelle di San Pietro e San Paolo in alto. Sulla cuspide, sotto la croce, si legge la data 1775, che indica la conclusione dei lavori della facciata. Nel primo ordine del partito centrale si apre un grande portale con cornice mistilinea, ricca di fregi e rilievi a motivi vegetali, mentre le porte lignee hanno una preziosa decorazione scultorea, in sei riquadri, con la raffigurazione di episodi del martirio di San Giorgio, opera dell'intagliatore palermitano Vincenzo Fiorello, che li realizzò nel 1793.

I like the convergence of the sides that channel the visitor's gaze to the church.
From the point of view of light and color, I think there is something to be seen, I understand that you have intervened selectively on the sky and the light I imagine was quite intense given the strong lighting of the shutter speed (certainly not the best one), but Dark tone of the sky and the brightness of the environment is a bit too marked Rosario, perhaps more from dusk or from blue time than from early afternoon (of course this is just my personal feeling): fwink
The square but more generally the location, they are very nice.
A warm greeting, Claudio :-P

Always very nice and constructive your advice, actually the timetable was the least well-known, but actually as noted by you the sky above has something to see, thanks Claudio :-P :-P hello Rosario ;-)

What splendor. I fully agree, a gem. Thanks for the caption that makes us know these treasures better.
I really like the photo and I find the composition very good. The only thing that I would see again is the exposure (it seems a bit 'underexposed) and the white balance that turns to colors too cold.
Congratulations Rosario :-)
