Photographer's Note

Co-Cathedral of the Annunciation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Co-Cathedral of the Annunciation of Todi (PG) is located in Piazza del Popolo. Built in the Lombard style, the church is also known locally as cathedral.
The church was built in the twelfth century on an area where there was a Roman building. It was completed in the fourteenth century and was remodeled several times.
The facade dates from the thirteenth century, but was subject to several modifications, the last in 500.
The fine rose window was initiated in 1515 and was completed under Bishop Biliotti between 1517 and 1523. Its windows are original and date back to the nineteenth-century restoration work.
The main portal, with pointed arches, has a door Bencivenni Antonio in 1521 and consists of four upper panels (depicting the Annunciation, the Archangel Gabriel, St. Peter and St. Paul) and six lower panels added in 1639.
The Romanesque apse and the bell tower are thirteenth century.
Inside, on the counter, is a fresco depicting the Last Judgement Ferraii Fenzoni, the work performed in 1596.
The apse is located a painted crucifix, dating from the middle of the '200 and on the left of the sanctuary is situated the Cesi Chapel, built by Bishop Angelo Cesi has frescoes on the ceiling of Faenzone of 1599. By the same author is also the painting on the altar of the chapel site.
The crypt houses three sculptures on the facade and site were previously attributed to Giovanni Pisano and the Rubeus.

Bellissima luce e gran bei colori. Mi piace molto l'effetto di movimento che allunga la piazza e dà rislto a questo gioiello romanico.
Ciao

Ciao Silvio,

anche a me piace moltissimo la luce! Stupenda la chiesa (non avevo mai sentito il termine "concattedrale" ma non sono un uomo di chiesa...) e l'inclusione delle persone aggiunge vita e dimensione all'immagine...

Buon fine settimana
Günther

Eccellente il controllo della luce, con bei colori sul campanile!
Ottima la composizione con la gente che attrae l'occhio anche sul primo piano.
Bravo

Hi Silvio,
the view of the Co-Cathedral of the Annunciation of Todi,is well placed in the image with the subdued light to makes the scene effective,with the stairs to adds depth in the image.The clarity brings out the details of the façade of the Co-Cathedral.

Ciao Silvio, bellissima luce e ottima inquadratura, stupenda la cattedrale con questo stile lombardo davvero strano, ottima anche la presenza delle persone nella composizione, danno un senso alle dimensioni, la pavimentazione e talmente liscia...non so se per l'usura o se hai usato un programma per togliere il rumore, buona serata, Valter

Bonjour Silvio,
très bonnes lumières malgré la difficulté de les maitriser.
J'aime beaucoup ce clocher illuminé qui attire positivement le regard vers le haut de l'image.
Un rendu parfait des textures pour une contre plongée artistiquement correcte.
Mes amitiés.
Daniel.

Ciao Silvio, molto bella questa immagine della cattedrale illuminata ancora dalle ultime luci del tramonto e amplificata dal faro che ne illumina il campanile. Bella e calda con i colori molto morbidi e giusti per l' occasione.
Un saluto ed augurio di buona serata a te e G. da M&D
