Taormina: Piazza Duomo, under the snow sent on December 26, 2022 (2:18) by Sergio Bartolomeo. 95 comments, 1862 views. [retina]

Piazza del Duomo a Taormina accoglie la fontana detta “quattro fontane. Eretta Nel 1635, per desiderio degli amministratori del tempo, realizzata in stile barocco. Quattro piccole colonne si trovano ai quatto angoli del corpo centrale e sono sormontate da quattro cavallucci marini dalla cui bocca usciva l'acqua che finiva nelle vaschette sottostanti. Oggi solo un cavalluccio è ancora funzionante. In realtà la fontana vera e propria è costituita dal corpo centrale, formata da due vasche. Il Duomo attuale è una somma delle influenze stilistiche e dei rimaneggiamenti subiti nelle varie epoche. Tra il 1945 e il 1948 l'architetto napoletano Armando Dillon diresse il restauro della chiesa rimettendo in luce le primitive strutture delle arcate dell'abside della chiesa occultate da stucchi barocchi, ripristinando le coperture a terrazzo sulle navate laterali. La struttura è semplice, a croce latina, con tre navate e tre absidi. La navata centrale è sostenuta da sei colonne di marmo rosa di Taormina con dei capitelli con motivo a foglia e squama di pesce. Si pensa che queste possano provenire dal teatro greco-romano taorminese. Il soffitto è caratterizzato da grandi travi in legno con mensole intagliate con motivi arabi resi in gusto gotico. Per la severità architettonica della costruzione medievale e gli elementi di fortificazione esterni, la chiesa viene soprannominata "la cattedrale fortezza". La facciata è infatti caratterizzata dalla merlatura a corona mentre sul retro si erge la torre a bastione sulla quale sono state collocate le campane nel 1750. Di notevole pregio il portale principale restaurato nel 1936 ed il grande rosone centrale d'ispirazione rinascimentale. Questa foto è adeguata alla stagione attuale anche se scattata durante una eccezionale nevicata, per questo Borgo, il 7 gennaio 2017.

Thanks Ingmaggiore
Exceptional snowfall for this village, also according to the people of Taormina, who were impressed.
A few hours, then all melted, but just enough time to document the exceptional event
Greetings, again happy new year and happy epiphany

An exceptional snowfall for this village. I'm glad you liked this shot. It's not often you see snow at my latitude. I was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time. After a few hours it all melted. Just enough time to take some photos of the most representative corners of this village best known for its temperate climate and its sea
I renew my affectionate wishes for a happy new year and a happy epiphany
Greetings

Thank you very much for your compliments and pper your appreciation to this shot: documented of a truly singular moment. In fact, few others to document its exceptionality which, as often happens in my latitudes, was maintained only for a few hours. Then all loose
I renew the wishes for a happy new year and happy epiphany

Unusual and very suggestive image. Taormina like the whole land of Trinacria is associated with the sun and heat, but even here a traditional winter queue can radically change a landscape rooted in time. A neraviglia Sergio.
good!!!
Bye gios ;-)

Well, the situation for Taormina is a bit unusual :-P , although now even in my part the snowfalls have become unusual.
Magnificent the result you have obtained and very precise caption, as is your custom.
HELLO, Gastone. ;-)
