L’église de San Nicolás de Bari est l’un des joyaux les plus fascinants de la Communauté Valencienne. À tel point qu’elle est populairement connue sous le nom de la Chapelle Sixtine de Valence, tout comme l’église de la Virgen del Ara en Estrémadure. Cette dénomination si particulière provient de sa restauration en 2016, bien qu’elle ait été classée Monument Historique Artistique National depuis 1981. Située dans le centre historique de la ville c’est le parfait exemple de la coexistence d’un édifice à l’architecture gothique du XVe siècle avec une décoration baroque frappante du XVIIème siècle.
Les fresques de l’église de San Nicolás de Bari et de San Pedro Mártir à Valence brillent à la suite de leur dernière restauration. Il est difficile de ne pas rester stupéfait en contemplant les chapelles, les autels et les voûtes de l’église, soignés dans les moindres détails. Plusieurs restaurations eurent lieu tout au long de son histoire, comme celle qui fut faite sur ordre de la famille Borja entre 1419 et 1455. C’est à ce moment que la voûte à nervures gothique de la nef centrale fut réalisée.
Deux cents ans plus tard, entre 1690 et 1693, l’intérieur de l’église fut recouvert d’une décoration baroque. Dans le même temps, des fresques furent ajoutées à la nef centrale qui représente des scènes de la vie des deux saints patrons de la paroisse, San Nicolás de Bari et San Pedro Mártir. La conception en fut réalisée par Antonio Palomino et la peinture par son disciple Dionís Vidal en 1700. Les peintures montrent des scènes de leur enfance, de leur prédication, des miracles accomplis et de leur mort.
Sur les peintures, vous pouvez observer des ouvertures fictives qui évoquent le ciel. Quant aux scènes de la vie des saints, la voûte est divisée en deux parties, correspondant à chacun des saints. Les deux convergent dans le presbytère créant une gloire des anges et des architectures fictives. Ce sont près de 2 000 m2 de peinture qui témoignent de la magnificence de l’église.
The Church of San Nicolás de Bari is one of the most fascinating jewels of the Valencian Community. So much so that it is popularly known as the Sistine Chapel of Valencia, just like the Church of the Virgen del Ara in Extremadura. This particular name comes from its restoration in 2016, although it has been classified as a National Historic Artistic Monument since 1981. Located in the historic center of the city, it is the perfect example of the coexistence of a building with 15th century Gothic with striking 17th century Baroque decoration.
The frescoes in the Church of San Nicolás in Bari and San Pedro Mártir in Valencia shine following their latest restoration. It is difficult not to be amazed contemplating the chapels, altars and vaults of the church, cared for in every detail. Several restorations took place throughout its history, such as the one that was made by order of the Borja family between 1419 and 1455. It was at this time that the Gothic ribbed vault of the central nave was made.
Two hundred years later, between 1690 and 1693, the interior of the church was covered with Baroque decoration. At the same time, frescoes were added to the central nave which depict scenes from the life of the two patron saints of the parish, San Nicolás de Bari and San Pedro Mártir. It was designed by Antonio Palomino and painted by his disciple Dionís Vidal in 1700. The paintings show scenes from their childhood, their preaching, miracles performed and their deaths.
On the paintings, you can observe fictitious openings that evoke the sky. As for the scenes from the lives of the saints, the vault is divided into two parts, corresponding to each of the saints. The two converge in the presbytery creating a glory of angels and fictional architectures. Nearly 2,000 m2 of painting bear witness to the magnificence of the church.
The second time I've caught this service and a better location and shot than first attempted. I first visited here yesterday and thought it would be a good spot for this train and alllow me to catch the 56 shortly after. Even this spot isn't long enough for the train.

Latest painting, acrylic on stretched canvas, 16 x 20
I used one of my photos as a reference, one I took I think a few years back.
Two cubs were standing up, face to face eating, and it reminded me of siblings having an eating contest, you know how they have those hot dog eating contests at fairs. Do they still do that sort of thing?
Anyway, it made me think of that. I still want to do one more thing on this. I want to put some water dripping down off the fish and the bear's arms.
It's that time of the year again. Hiawatha #336 arrives Chicago behind the class Amtrak B32-8WH which is subbing for a Charger that shit out a few days prior. The searchlight installations at the east end of Morgan Street were installed in the early 1980s.
Real estate development has exploded in the West Loop over the past decade. The Fulton Labs on the right were completed last year, and 345 N. Morgan on the left was completed a few months ago (still under construction when this picture was taken). The latter was built by Sterling Bay which is also overseeing the redevelopment of the former ADM flour mill. What you see here is only a fraction of what's to come to the West Loop in the next few years.
The latest variety of daffodils to bloom in my garden. For the first time I can remember, my earliest daffodils are still looking great. In past years, shortly after they would bloom, we would get very hot Santa Ana winds that would just decimate the flowers. This year, some of us are complaining that it's cold, but not the daffodils.
No, NOT the latest new band... but juicy, crunchy peppers! So colourful.
They are tiny, about 4/5 cm max, best stuffed as tapas
Chiquino peppers are from Mexico, look like small bell peppers but have a sweeter taste, but fear not despite their size they are not chillies and therefore not hot.
Thanx, M, (~ _ *)

Colourful scooters - Alicante, Spain
As many of you may already know:
Mods and rockers were two conflicting British youth subcultures of the early/mid 1960s to early 1970s. Media coverage of mods and rockers fighting in 1964 sparked a moral panic about British youth, and the two groups became widely perceived as violent, unruly troublemakers.
The rocker subculture was centred on motorcycling, and their appearance reflected that. Rockers generally wore protective clothing such as black leather jackets and motorcycle boots.
The mod subculture was centred on fashion and music, and many mods rode scooters. Mods wore suits and other cleancut outfits, and preferred 1960s music genres such as soul, rhythm and blues, ska, beat music, and British blues-rooted bands like The Who, The Yardbirds, and Small Faces.

Latest face, so effortless
Your great arrival at my eyes,
No one standing near could guess
Your beauty had no home till then;
Precious vagrant, recognise
My look, and do not turn again.
Admirer and admired embrace
on a useless level, where
I contain your current grace,
You my judgement; yet to move
Into real untidy air
Brings no lasting tribute -
Bargains, suffering, and love,
Not this always-planned salute.
Lies grow dark around us: will
The statue of your beauty walk?
Must I wade behind it, till
Something's found - or is not found -
Far too late for turning back?
Or, if I will not shift my ground,
Is your power actual - can
Denial of you duck and run,
Stay out of sight and double round,
Leap from the sun with mask and brand
And murder and not understand?
~ Philip Larkin.
