Facade of Orvieto Cathedral (Duomo di Orvieto), Orvieto, Terni, Umbra, Italy
The Cathedral of Orvieto is a large 14th-century Roman Catholic cathedral situated in the town of Orvieto in Umbria, central Italy. The building was constructed under the orders of Pope Urban IV to commemorate and provide a suitable home for the Corporal of Bolsena, a miracle which is said to have occurred in 1263 in the nearby town of Bolsena, when a traveling priest who had doubts about the truth of transubstantiation found that his Host was bleeding so much that it stained the altar cloth. The cloth is now stored in the Chapel of the Corporal inside the cathedral.
Situated in a position dominating the town of Orvieto which sits perched on a volcanic plug, the cathedrals fa'ade is a classic piece of religious construction, containing elements of design from the 14th to the 20th century, with a large rose window, golden mosaics and three huge bronze doors, while inside resides two frescoed chapels decorated by some of the best Italian painters of the period with images of Judgment Day. The Cathedral has five bells, dating back to Renaissance, tuned in E flat

Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Capturing the Majestic Facade of Orvieto Cathedral in Umbria, Italy
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This breathtaking print by Artie Photography showcases the awe-inspiring facade of Orvieto Cathedral, also known as Duomo di Orvieto. Situated in the charming town of Orvieto, this 14th-century Roman Catholic cathedral stands tall and proud, a testament to both religious devotion and architectural brilliance. Commissioned by Pope Urban IV, the construction of this grand cathedral was inspired by a miraculous event that occurred in nearby Bolsena. The Corporal of Bolsena, a sacred cloth stained with blood during Mass, found its eternal home within the Chapel of the Corporal inside these hallowed walls. The cathedral's facade is an exquisite example of religious artistry spanning centuries. From its towering rose window to shimmering golden mosaics and three magnificent bronze doors, every detail exudes reverence and splendor. Stepping inside reveals frescoed chapels adorned with masterpieces from renowned Italian painters depicting scenes from Judgment Day. Perched on a volcanic plug overlooking the town below, Orvieto Cathedral commands attention with its imposing presence and rich history. Its five Renaissance bells tuned in E flat resonate through time and space, echoing centuries-old prayers and hymns. Artie Ng's photography captures not just an image but also evokes a sense of wonderment at human ingenuity and spiritual devotion embodied within this architectural masterpiece.
