This print by Artie Photography transports us to the picturesque town of Lucca in Tuscany, Central Italy. The focal point of the image is the magnificent San Michele in Foro, a Roman Catholic basilica church that stands proudly over the ancient Roman forum. Built during the 13th century, this architectural masterpiece showcases a harmonious blend of Italian craftsmanship and historical significance. The intricate sculptures, inlays, blind arcades, and loggias adorning its façade are a testament to the skill and artistry of its creators. Amongst these ornate details stand majestic angels and an awe-inspiring depiction of St. Michael the Archangel. Inside lies another remarkable treasure - Madonna Salutis Portus - a sculpture created by Matteo Civitali. San Michele in Foro holds great historical importance as it served as the seat for Lucca's most important assembly until 1370 – Consiglio Maggiore (Major Council). Its dedication to Archangel Michael adds an ethereal aura to this already enchanting structure. Artie Ng's photography beautifully captures not only the grandeur of San Michele in Foro but also highlights its place within Lucca's skyline and landscape. This iconic landmark stands tall amidst other historic buildings made from stone, creating an atmosphere steeped in history. Whether you have visited Tuscany or simply appreciate stunning architecture and cultural heritage, this print is sure to transport you into a world where time seems suspended; where
