AHIST 1401 Art History - Term 4, : Sacred Spaces
The place I chose to describe for this task is a church. In particular, a church in my city, Reggio Calabria. In 1908 there was a very strong earthquake here, which destroyed most of the buildings of the time. They were rebuilt with anti-seismic systems, but we lost a lot of history along with the buildings and lives of people in that terrible earthquake. However, some buildings remained standing. One of these is the church of Pepe (or Krèsiê Pipi ) also called Church of the Madonna of the Poor . A small church built around 400 AD. The style of that time can still be felt entering it, halfway between the Bizantine and the Gothic. Inside we can see paintings by artists of the period, carefully preserved over the centuries.
