Charming Fontana dell’Elefante in Catania, Sicily featuring a black elephant bearing an Egyptian obelisk and Roman globe. It was sculpted out of lava from Mt Etna in 1736 by Vaccarini. 2nd shot is of Bernini’s elephant in Piazza Santa Maria sopra Minerva. The stunning Pantheon makes a perfect backdrop for his composition of elephant and Egyptian obelisk. . . . #sicily #sicily🇮🇹 #sicilia #italy #italia @prcnola @projectporamor #catania #roma #rome #bernini #elephantsculpture #bernini #elefanteberniniano #piazzeditalia #piazzasofitaly #vaccarini
Duomo di Siracusa: Originally an Ancient Greek temple (5th century BC), then converted into a church in the 6th century CE. After 200 years as a mosque it was converted back to a church by a Norman king. Vestiges of the Norman exterior remain. Note the fluted Doric column embedded in the Norman wall. The richness of Sicily poured into one amazing structure. . . . #sicily #sicily🇮🇹 #sicilia #italy #italia @prcnola @projectporamor #unescoheritagesite #ancientgreece #archeologia #ancientarchitecture #siracusa #ortigia #ortygia #duomo #duomodisiracusa #cittavecchia #church #chiesa #chiese #chieseditalia #chiesedisicilia
