Benché la leggenda faccia risalire a Carlo Magno la sua fondazione , il primo documento in cui è menzionata l'Ecclesia di Santa Maria di Vezzolano risale al 1095: si tratta dell'investitura di Teodulo ed Egidio ad officiales, con l'impegno di attenersi ad alcuni precetti condivisi e di vivere secondo la regola canonica, probabilmente quella di sant'Agostino, attestata in seguito in Vezzolano da bolle papali del 1176 e del 1182. Posta tra le diocesi di Vercelli, Asti, Torino ed Ivrea, vicina ai potenti comuni di Asti e Chieri, la Canonica di Vezzolano testimonia con le sue importanti opere d'arte medioevale un lungo periodo di splendore tra i secoli XII e XIII, seguito da un lento declino, che può essere simbolicamente racchiuso in due date: il 1405, anno in cui la canonica fu concessa in commenda ad abati residenti altrove, e il 1800, quando l'amministrazione napoleonica ne espropriò i beni, trasformando la chiesa in cappella campestre della parrocchia di Albugnano e in granaio il chiostro affrescato. Nel 1937 il complesso fu ceduto allo Stato e in consegna alla Soprintendenza per i Beni Architettonici.

Your photos, as well as showing works often hidden or forgotten, they have the added support of their history.

Even this masterfully executed.

very very beautiful, conversion bw fits pennellissimo!
I'm going to go for a night photos, exactly on my mind a long exposure with fisheye (or with the 16mm, 24 eq of aps-c) to try to do my first "astrographic" suddenly and God willing even with the milky way, given the low light pollution in the area
again congratulations :)
