All'angolo di via Carlo Alberto, si presenta con una severa facciata in cotto. Le origini della chiesa sono antichissime infatti la fondazione di una prima cappella dedicata a S. Francesco potrebbe risalire al 1210, al tempo del non sufficientemente documentato passaggio del Santo nel suo viaggio verso la Francia. La gotica chiesa originaria venne abbattuta nel 1755 e la ricostruzione fu affidata all'architetto Filippo Castelli, seguace di Juvarra. La chiesa era da poco terminata (1788) allorché, con l'occupazione francese, venne confiscata assieme agli edifici conventuali e adibita ad usi militari; i francescani poterono, salvare gli splendidi arredi che tuttora figurano nella chiesa, dai candelabri ai dipinti tra cui l'Immacolata Concezione con l'Eterno, ora nel vano di accesso alle scale del Convento, uno dei capolavori di Michele Antonio Milocco, realizzato tra il 1730 e il 1750. Vanno infine ricordati i dipinti del pittore moncalierese Tommaso Juglaris, tra cui una deposizione, la tela raffigurante San Giuseppe da Copertino di Giovanni Domenico Molinari, uno tra i più fedeli allievi del Beaumont, e la pregevole statua lignea della Madonna.

Beautiful photo, good symmetry management and freehand perspective, remarkable quality at 12800 ISO ;-) Personally I would have tried, from the same location and with a 24mm focal point, a vertical shot, sacrificing side space to the benches, but doing so will return to the frame at least part of the beautiful paintings in the ceiling :-) (maybe you did it, but you preferred this version).
Hello :-)

Thanks, I am well accepted for comments, for now I have to arrange with 24-120, in the future I think I take a wide angle + pushed, I made more shots, but 24 did not let me do what I wanted then I thought of split the shots in two shots, there are two in the gallery. Comments are always welcome, thank you
