Assisi, the hometown of St Francis, the saint of poverty, spirituality and peace, is the place where different races, cultures and religions meet.

The Basilica of St Francis (a masterpiece of architecture with works by Cimabue, Giotto, Pietro Lorenzetti and Simone Martini)

Saint Francis of Assisi (Sept 26, 1181 - October 3, 1226) was a Roman Catholic friar and the founder of the Order of Friars Minor, more commonly known as the Franciscans. He is known as the patron saint of animals, birds, and the environment, and it is customary for Catholic churches to hold ceremonies honoring animals around his feast day of October 4.

This cathedral of two levels is a monument to San Francesco (St Francis), founder of the brown-cloaked Franciscan order, and is one of the most important in Christianity. This is the gothic-style upper church with facade of marble where there is the famous series of twenty-eight frescoes by Renaissance painter Giotto, each depicting scenes of St Francis’s life.

Beautiful shot of this architectural complex. A bit correction of the perspective (just to get the tower vertical) would have helped.

Dear Tsilla,
What a fine photo.
very good shot...
great angles and perspective ...
Well done

Nicely composed with excellent use of the broad steps as a lead-in to the shot. I would never have thought of doing this! Always something to learn. :)

**)sorry pt

Nice perspective in this one. I remember the place now.
Details in the image do seem a bit blurred though.
Maybe the processing was not optimal.
