, 1/160 f/11.0, ISO 100, tripod. Pavia, Italy.

Basilica di S. Michele Maggiore a Pavia, ripresa da Sud-Ovest. La chiesa, ricostruita tra la fine dell'XI e il XII secolo, completata entro il 1155, è uno dei monumenti romanici più importanti della Lombardia e fu sede dell'incoronazione dei re d'Italia, da Berengario I (888 d.C.) a Federico Barbarossa (1155). Con la crescita di Milano rispetto alla vecchia capitale longobarda l'onore passò alla basilica di San'Ambrogio. Ha pianta a croce latina con transetto sporgente, cupola ottagonale all'incrocio nascosta esternamente dal tiburio ed appare rivestita in pietra arenaria di color ocra, come pure in arenaria è la decorazione scultorea. Bella ma fragile la pietra arenaria, tanto che negli ultimi decenni le sculture si stanno deteriorando rapidamente a causa degli agenti atmosferici e dell'inquinamento. La facciata occidentale, visibile in fotografia, ha un profilo a capanna a due soli spioventi ed è "a vento", eccede cioè la colma delle tre navate. I contrafforti e i pilastri a fascio addossati alla superficie scandiscono la facciata in tre campi che annunciano la suddivisione interna in tre navate. Molto bello l'equilibrio di pieni e vuoti, con i campi laterali aperti ciascuno da un portale e una bifora, quello centrale da un portale più alto dei laterali sormontato da un triplo registro in cui si susseguono salendo tre bifore, tre monofore e un'apertura a croce compresa tra due oculi. La facciata culmina in bellissima loggetta di arcatelle su 21 colonnine che segue la linea degli spioventi. Ricchissimo il repertorio di bassorilievi, come detto assai deteriorati. #chiese #architettura #romanico #lombardia

You couldn't miss this.
Now they are restoring it, I will ask Don Giulio how and for how long; the fact remains that it is collapsing, 900 years after construction. I lived in Pavia for about 60 years and my memory of when I was a boy is still well present, with perfectly legible statues and sculptures while now there is nothing or almost nothing left.
A very good document.
Buon weekend.
Paolo

Thank you Paolo, unfortunately it's what you say. I have gino chierici's book with the photos taken in the 1940s and the difference is impressive.
