The master´s quality is manifested through the depiction of faces, introspective,
full of dignity and melancholic lyrism that is enhanced with a delicate sfumato.

The evening lights and the view was supernatural in Erice. This place is sacral, legend has it that Daedalos has landed here... Ikarus has never made it to this view though :) There was a temple on this cliff for hundreds of years.. I've forgotten when was it ruined, anyway, this is a meanful spot. The overprocessing is only half way where I wanted to go with this image, so don't complain about the missing colors on the bottom please.

The landmark of the old mining village with interesting spindle-shaped urbanism is the Lutheran Church located on a low hill at the upper end of the village called Koceľovce. The church is an almost intactly preserved Gothic building from the first half of the 14th century, originally dedicated to St. Bartholomew.
The single-nave space with a polygonal chancel, a sacristy on the north side and a high tower on a square plan in the west, which turns into an octogon on the upper floors, is covered by a high gabled roof with shingles. The roofing of the tower, with an atypical metal Art Nouveau helmet, dates from the beginning of the 20th century. The nave is vaulted with classicist Theresian vaults instead of the original beamed ceiling, which is stylishly followed by an equally vaulted brick porch. During the last third of the 14th century, the polygonal chancel was built and vaulted with a cross rib vault. The stylistic purity of the church is emphasized by high windows divided by profiled bars and tracery and a system of supporting pillars of the chancel. The current southern entrance to the church was opened during the restoration in the 2nd half of the 18th century, it is closed by a Gothic door with decorative fittings, which were transferred here from the original entrance portal in the tower. Another Gothic door with rich wrought iron decoration is in the portal to the sacristy. This interesting wrought iron door also became the logo of the church.

The Franciscan Church is the oldest religious (sacral) building in the Old Town of Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. The church was consecrated in the year 1297 in the presence of King Andrew III of Hungary. In the past, the church building served for larger gatherings of townspeople or Hungarian nobles. In 1526 Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor was elected here to become the King of Hungary. During coronations, kings used to knight nobles as Kights of the Order of the Golden Spur in this church.
The building was damaged several times by fire and earthquake and only a small part of its original form is preserved, most notably the presbytery. The adjacent Chapel of Saint John the Evangelist with a crypt, built in the second half of the 14th century is considered one of the finest examples of gothic architecture in the city.
Legend has it that the church was built by the King Ladislaus IV of Hungary to commemorate his victory over the Czech King (Přemysl) Ottokar II of Bohemia from the year 1278.
It was constructed in Bratislava (known as Pressburg / Poszony for most of its history) between 1280 and 1297 in a gothic style and consecrated by King Andrew III on 24 March 1297. It was turned into a Renaissance church in the 17th century and into a Baroque church in the 18th century.
Selected persons were knighted here in the 16th - 19th centuries as Knights of the Golden Spur, each time when kings of Royal Hungary/the Kingdom of Hungary were crowned in the Cathedral of St Martin, also located within the walled city.
Two chapels and a Franciscan monastery from the 14th century stand adjacent to the church. One of them, the St. John the Evangelist Chapel, contains a crypt of the family of Jakub, an important Mayor of Pressburg (Bratislava), modelled after the French Sainte Chapelle. The spacious rooms of the monastery have been used for meetings, mayoral elections and sessions of the Regional Parliament.

The fortified early Gothic church from the first half of the 14th century was built on the site of an older building. In the 15th century it was fortified with a wall and a wooden bell tower was built on the grounds in 1657. The single-nave space with a square-ended presbytery and a built-in sacristy has a painted cassette ceiling from 1758, the presbytery is characteristic by its rib vault. The mural paintings date back to the 60s of the 14th century and the creator of at least a part of them is the Master of Ochtiná presbytery. These interior frescoes were discovered in the early 20th century by I. Huszka who was restoring them in 1905. All the paintings, interior and exterior ones, were completely restored between 1983 and 1985 by J. Josefík, L. Székely and I. Žuch.
Within the almost intact medieval church, the murals have a uniquely strong impression and informative value, thanks to their scale and complexity of preservation. Thematically they focus on individual scenes from the Marian and the Passion cycle, but they do not have a uniform concept unlike the upper belt on the nave’s northern wall with a complete depiction of the St. Ladislaus legend.

Among the beautiful sacral sights we can undoubtedly include the Greek Catholic wooden Church of the Protection of the Holy Mother of God from 1770, which stands in the mountain village of Miroľa in the northeastern region of Slovakia.
It has a characteristic log structure and a three-part outer and inner division. The interior is decorated with iconostasis and altar. In the sanctuary, there is the icon of the archangel Michael and the icon of the Mother of God, Virgin Hodegetria with praise located. Liturgical objects are found in the anteroom that were revealed in the individual rebuildings of the temple. Especially the rare raincoat, probably from the 17th century, is worth noticing.
A special chapter is the rare books used in religious services in the Church-Slavic language. The temple has been repaired several times, most recently a complete reconstruction in 2005-2008 has been carried out. As well as with other wooden churches, even here stands a wooden entrance gate with a low shingled roof in front of the church.

Zack’s influence comes from Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo... These great artists who have forever revolutionized art, architecture, and even science. The first of their times to sublimate men and women by giving them the appearance of living God, "half-man, half God".
Sacral chakra, when closed, blocks the free energy of Kundalini flow that has either been freed along its route through the root chakra below, opening its gates to its flow; or else the little trickles of it that have escaped around the closed gates of the chakra below.
It’s not that all...
L'infiorata è un momento magico dove la sacralità, la fede, l'arte e la natura s'incontrano piacevolmente disegnando pitture nella terra come nel cuore. L’evento si svolge ogni anno, nel mese di Giugno, dove un immenso tappeto floreale si estende articolandosi in vari quadri, per circa 2000 metri, coprendo interamente il percorso della solenne processione.
Un sentito ringraziamento a tutti di vero cuore per aver visitato la mia galleria fotografica !!!

Aldo Rossi e Perugino
In uno dei capolavori di Perugino, l’”Annunciazione Ranieri”, il porticato rinascimentale fa da cornice alla scena sacrale con forte monumentalità. Si inserisce con lo stesso intento il cimitero di Modena di Aldo Rossi, che con la medesima proporzione di bucatura del porticato originale, ne riprende la volumetria e la prospettiva, fino a diventare muro perimetrale. Potente, aulico, metafisico.
In “San Bernardino risana Giovanni Antonio da Parma ferito con una pala”, invece, oltre la corte interna della scena principale, si intravede un impianto a cupola, quasi orientale: ora, sbuca il Bonnefanten Museum, opera ultima di Rossi, che con la sua copertura in acciaio ne riprende la forma.
