The Collegiate Church of St Florentius (Italian: Collegiata San Fiorenzo) is a Gothic style, Roman Catholic collegiate, now parish church, in Fiorenzuola d'Arda, in the Province of Piacenza, region of Emilia-Romagna, Italy. History A church at the site, dedicated to St. Boniface, was present here in 824; later documents note a church dedicated to St. Fiorenzo was rebuilt here in 1273. The Romanesque crypt still maintains an altar dedicated to St Boniface. However construction was not accelerated until 1485. The interior chapel of the Santissimo Sacramento was built in 1685 in Baroque style. The apse, presbytery, and nave have frescoes mainly focused on the ''Life of San Fiorenzo'' by 15th century artists. The stuccoes in the Chapel of the Holy Sacrament were complete by Giacomo Marcori in 1681, and frescoed by Bartolomeo Baderna. It contains a painting depicting the ''Parable of the Convict'' (1668) by Jacopo Ferrari, and on the walls two canvases (1674-1675) by Pietro Galli. ...

Ciborium (architecture)
In ecclesiastical architecture, a ciborium ("ciborion": in Greek) is a canopy or covering supported by columns, freestanding in the sanctuary, that stands over and covers the altar in a basilica or other church. It may also be known by the more general term of baldachin, though ''ciborium'' is often considered more correct for examples in churches. Really a baldachin (originally an exotic type of silk from Baghdad) should have a textile covering, or at least, as at Saint Peter's in Rome, imitate one. There are exceptions; Bernini's structure in Saint Peter's, Rome is always called the baldachin. Early ciboria had curtains hanging from rods between the columns, so that the altar could be concealed from the congregation at points in the liturgy. Smaller examples may cover other objects in a church. In a very large church, a ciborium is an effective way of visually highlighting the altar, and emphasizing its importance. The altar and ciborium are often set upon a dais to raise i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Marco Benefial
Marco Benefial (25 April 1684 – 9 April 1764) "Marco Benefial (Getty Museum)" (history), The Getty Museum, 2006, webpage: GM-Benefial. was an Italian, proto- Neoclassical painter, mainly active in Rome. Benefial is best known for his repudiation of 18th century decorative Rococo styles pre-eminent in the Rome dominated by Carlo Maratta pupils. His paintings portrayed tangible human figures, with complex treatment of space, and luminous, warm colors. Along with the altarpieces and frescoes, he also painted many portraits. Because he partnered with some inferior artists who subsequently received credit, some of his paintings have been frequently misidentified. Life and work Marco Benefial was born in Rome in 1684, and died there in 1764.

Giovanni Paolo Panini
Giovanni Paolo Panini or Pannini (17 June 1691 – 21 October 1765) was an Italian painter and architect who worked in Rome and is primarily known as one of the ''veduta, vedutisti'' ("view painters"). As a painter, Panini is best known for his vistas of Rome, in which he took a particular interest in the city's antiquities. Among his most famous works are his view of the interior of the Pantheon, Rome, Pantheon (on behalf of Francesco Algarotti), and his ''vedute''—paintings of picture galleries containing views of Rome. Most of his works, especially those of ruins, have a fanciful and unreal embellishment characteristic of ''capriccio (painting), capriccio'' themes. In this they resemble the ''capricci'' of Marco Ricci. Panini also painted portraits, including one of Pope Benedict XIV. Biography As a young man, Panini trained in his native town of Piacenza, under Giuseppe Natali and Andrea Galluzzi, and with stage designer Francesco Galli-Bibiena. In 1711, he moved to Rome, whe ...
