Florence Duomo – Santa Maria Del Fiore is Steeped in History Spanning 1600 Years
Aug 30th
One can not help but feel humbled and, frankly, if you stand next to wells of Florence Cathedral with Brunelleschi's dome's courage up in heaven or in addition to the Giotto's Bell Side Since 1333. Imagine for a moment, what life was like before the Cathedral, where he founded the ancient Christian church for these reasons at the end of the fourth century, when the colony of Rome, better known as Florentia was busy with the Roman people? Come with me in Piazza del Duomo, the religious center of Florence is more than 1600 years and we study That I monuments have stood the test of time to find those who do not know and discover the mysteries that lie below.
Did you know that one of these buildings still holds the world record for the largest dome in brick and mortar that came to define the horizon and of the Renaissance city of Florence dominate? Make sure you have a quote? After half a fantastic day in Fiesole, where, en route to Our hotel is the magnificent valley and visited the cathedral of Florence, Santa Maria del Fiore, more commonly known as the Duomo. Santa Maria del Fiore translated S. Maria del Fiore, the flower with Christ himself as the fruit of our redemption.
Arnolfo di Cambio, designed by the construction started and completed in 1296, without the dome in 1348. It was not until 1436 that Brunelleschi "dome inside a dome was finally completed and crowned by a lantern that after 10 years. With a holy relics, golden ball of copper that adorns the top of the lantern was added in 1471. This marked the end of a period building extends 170 years. What an extraordinary achievement! Truly a feast for the eyes in person, this structure continues Titanic 153 meters (502 feet) long, 90 meters (295 feet) at its widest point and 90 meters from the floor to the top of the dome.
Upholstered in green and pink marble framed by bands of white marble, the facade of the cathedral was not completed in the 15th century, but almost 400 years later by Emilio De Fabris. Look carefully and you will see sculptures adorn the niches along the walls, the Holy Mother of flowers perched on a scepter at the door and mosaics of various scenes of Christ, St. Mary S. John the Baptist, Local artisans and traders, Florence and other personalities on the remaining ports. Truly a beautiful view from all angles, and perfect date moment.
To Kodak, Brunelleschi's dome is still the largest masonry dome in the world and photos of Florence is complete without it. Only the Pantheon in Rome is bigger, but consists of concrete there is no competition. Speaking of games, back in 1419, the city of Florence in a dome for the best design that would be top of the Basilica of the octagonal base. Brunelleschi, a local artist and architect, has competed and won by Ghiberti, Brunelleschi, the artist who in a previous match for the bronze panels of loss "Gates of Paradise" doors of the East Competition Baptistry.
The called for the design of the dome which extends 42 meters (140 feet) and could not contain the flying buttresses that were rejected by the Italians. With the support of Cosimo de 'Medici, the idea of Brunelleschi, a dome within a dome design that should not fly presented foothills and surprisingly, even the scaffolding around the outside. The concept was to create a single framework made of lightweight materials, which then provide support for the outer casing is made of several building materials, building weatherproof.
In general, the first octagonal dome ever built, and why the recipe for concrete had been lost since the age of the Pantheon, Brunelleschi's dome was built with bricks and mortar and an explanation of world records. Today you can climb the 463 steps and see first hand this unique building. Sons of magnitude, yes, but the view of the surroundings of Florence and Tuscany, from the top of the dome, a great and definitely worth the Huff and Puff out arrival.Compared highly decorated cathedral, interior design and more reserved with frescoes painted by the Florentine masters of ages 14 and 15.
Along the walls are frescoes by Paolo Uccello, Adreani Chestnut, a picture of Dante's Divine Comedy by Domenico di Michelino and sculpted portraits of Giotto and Brunelleschi. Later in the 19th century, Arnolfo di Cambio added busts original design of the cathedral, and Emilio de Fabris, 19th century exterior designer. Decorate the interior walls of the dome, 295 meters
