Set atop a big chunk of tufo volcanic stone above fields streaked with vines, olive groves, and cypress trees, Orvieto is one of the most impressive hill towns in central Italy. Populated since Etruscan times, its austere center is classic medieval, with weaving lanes, brown stone houses and cobbled piazzas.
But what distinguishes the town from its neighbors is its cathedral, the Duomo di Orvieto; Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta or Orvieto Cathedral.
One of Italy's greatest Gothic churches, it was built between 1290 and 1320, and is stunning both inside and out. I first saw its sensational facade unexpectedly as I turned a corner, and there, framed between two buildings and the clear blue, winter’s sky was the monumental, Gothic facade, divided by four pillars, that has been compared to a medieval altarpiece . Incredible mosaics decorate the façade and the beautiful bronze doors sculpted by Emilio Greco only begin to round out the exterior.
'The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.' ~ Marcel Proust, writer, Paris, 1871-1922. My photographs are not merely a record of what was before my camera, but rather my visualization of the place and time as I remember discovering it, be it a particular mood, impression, or ambiance. These images may bring back memories of your own travels or they might inspire, you in some small way to venture off and maybe discover exciting, new landscapes of your own. But in the meantime, consider placing one of these photographs on your wall as a window to foreign lands. A note to those who purchase one of my images, you have my deepest thanks. I am honored that you have chosen one of my photographs...
