No, da parte mia nessun attacco di "cancel culture" ai danni del santo, è che ho fotografato la sua basilica in un'ora di grande contrasto. Per me è sempre una visione magnifica: il quadriportico, la facciata del nartece con le sue aperture, le due torri. In origine di torri ce n'era una sola - quella di destra - , il problema è che a servire l'abbazia c'erano due comunità, una di canonici, sistemata sul lato nord del complesso (a sinistra nella foto), l'altra di monaci benedettini, a sud (la Cattolica con i suoi due chiostri è la ricostruzione cinquecentesca del monastero, realizzata quando al posto dei benedettini si insediarono i cistercensi). Le due comunità condividevano l'amore a nostro Signore e al santo vescovo ma su tutto il resto litigavano, pare anzi che in qualche occasione monaci e canonici siano persino passati alle mani e ai bastoni: litigavano per l'utilizzo dell'ambone, per le offerte (questo è ovvio) e per l'utilizzo del campanile, quello più antico che si vede sulla destra. Fu così che nel XII secolo i canonici ottennero dal vescovo il permesso di costruirsi un campanile tutto per loro, quello che si vede a sinistra della foto. Naturalmente lo edificarono più alto di quello dei monaci perché nelle torri le dimensioni contano eccome. Per quanto riguarda me, sono una bestia peggiore dei litigiosi canonici e monaci di S. Ambrogio, come dice uno dei miei utenti ho un carattere "molto pessimo", così quando mi trovo a fotografare l'architettura divento misantropo e insofferente nei confronti dei visitatori, turisti o fedeli non fa differenza, che inquinano il campo delle mie operazioni fotografiche e poco importa che lo facciano con pieno diritto. L'altro giorno a Sant'Ambrogio non sopportavo neppure l'abbigliamento estivo del nemico: se proprio dovete starmi tra i piedi, cercate almeno di essere belli e di vestirvi con decenza! E da che pulpito, io sembravo un barbone. E poi perché vi soffermare a fotografare col cellulare, cosa avete da fotografare?! Sono solo vecchie pietre, rozze e spoglie! Potete immaginare quanto mi sia costata questa foto in cui non compaiono umani. #chiese #romanico #architetturaRomanica

Dear Enrico, I didn't make you so facetious, an explosion of humanity and personality!
In our tours there is my archaeologist friend Francesco and my son who act as Ciceroni, the first is able to trample on the most elementary rights in order to explain minutely the most subtle of the meanings inherent in the history of the single Church.
Thanks for sharing, I hope to get to know each other one day.
Good Life

Surely the choice of the shooting moment has been well thought out to mix light and shadow in a big way. Hello.

Interested historical presentation and exhilarating misanthropic outburst. :-D
I experienced the same "suffering" at the Valley of the Temples...
Beautiful contrast lights / shadows sought and obtained.
Perfect "centering".
Of course, as I had already written to my friend Simonperi, the canons had the opportunity to build a second bell tower of the same height as the first and instead the human haughtiness overwhelmed them by depriving the "photographer" of the beloved symmetry. What a hard life, how much endurance does the hard life of the amateur photographer entail... :-D
Greetings

Dear Jordan, history and art pass through these small facts, through man, despite man and indeed thanks to man, who unconsciously or unconsciously contributes to good and beauty!
What paradoxes!
Hello
And thanks Enrico for the shot, which animates and arouses opportunities!
