CHIESE DI MILANO

Verso il 1250 una piccola comunità di monaci benedettini dava vita ad una Cappella dedicata a S. Gottardo dove ora sorge l'omonima Chiesa Parrocchiale. E di questa loro presenza permangono ancora significative tracce. Attorno al 1500 i benedettini, trasferendosi in centro città, lasciarono la conduzione della Chiesa alla parrocchia di S. Lorenzo mentre i fedeli continuavano a crescere. Rimaneggiata ed ampliata, la Chiesa assurgeva nel 1568, sotto S. Carlo,(Carlo Borromeo, allora Arcivescovi di Milano), alla dignità di Chiesa Parrocchiale. A quell'epoca, era alta 10 metri,larga 12 m. e lunga 30 metri. Di questa prima costruzione, rimane il ricordo in una stampa del 1796 e cosi si conservò fino al 1832. Dal 1832 al 1836 la Chiesa subì una nuova radicale trasformazione: vi si aggiungeva il transetto, veniva progettata un'ampia e spaziosa cupola e al di là del transetto veniva collocata l'area del presbiterio, con deambulatorio. La Chiesa raggiungeva così la lunghezza di 56 metri. Chi oggi entra in essa e la guarda è colto da "un senso di profonda continuità stilistica e da una sorta di imponenza ben calibrata ed elegante". Merito anche dell'opera di abbellimento e di decorazione. Vanno ricordati in particolare: la dotazione del prestigioso organo dei Fratelli Lingiardi di Pavia (nel1875); gli affreschi del celebre pittore L. Morgari e gli eccellenti stucchi del Secchi che con lavoro coordinato abbracciano tutta la Chiesa (fine 800). In seguito non si è perso tempo! Basti pensare al pavimento, alle vetrate, agli altari … Il tutto è poi stato ripreso e restaurato a fondo in questi ultimi vent'anni fino alla costruzione del nuovo altare rivolto al popolo che armoniosamente si innesta, con stile e colori, in un'unica artistica realtà. Intanto mentre procedeva l'opera di restauro, a poco a poco si è andata accrescendo una ben articolata vita pastorale e liturgica. Oggi chi entra in Chiesa durante una messa domenicale è spontaneamente portato a provare un senso di benessere spirituale che lo coinvolge, che lo trattiene e gli fa desiderare di tornare ancora. Centro spirituale della Parrocchia è la Chiesa Parrocchiale e centro della Chiesa è l'altare dove la comunità si raccoglie per la celebrazione della Messa. Il nuovo altare rivolto al popolo mirabilmente inserito nella struttura esistente per stile e colori è proprio, di per se stesso, un invito ad avvicinarsi fisicamente per le celebrazioni liturgiche. Critiche e commenti come sempre super gradite. C'è la versione originale a colori, chi volesse vederla, non ha che da chiedere e la posterò molto volentieri. Grazie a tutti.

ITA, as suggested by Sergio Antonio and a little bit of work in the PP would make it better.

A beautiful shot Annamaria, well composed and illustrated in a more than thorough in the caption.
My only reservation, but you already know, and you also know that it is a matter of my personal taste, is the B & N in which you have returned. Post also the color, this is what I suggest you.
Still very good!
Bye and have a good day !

Andro, thanks for the beautiful view. I find it essential to document a picture with a suitable caption, as a matter of information and why not ... even to entice even those who do not know the place to go see and photograph in turn. Friendly as always, again, thank you.
A dear greeting
