Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seconds before the first shock of the tragic earthquake that rocked the central Italian town of Assisi on September 26, 1997, Ghigo Roli completed photographing the interior of the Upper Basilica of St. Francis. He had been working for months on detailed pictures of the vault and its precious medieval frescoes for a forthcoming publication. Just as he stepped out into the night air, at 2:30 A.M., the earth shook beneath him. When it stopped, he ran back inside and, miraculously, found his camera intact amid the terrible destruction. Roli's work, which represents the last photographs of the Basilica's intact vault, is accompanied here by several photographs taken immediately after the destruction. An introduction by art historian Giorgio Bonsanti describes the vault and its frescoes in detail. This volume will stand as a memorial to the glory of the Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi, one of the world's great art treasures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guided tour of the Basilica of San Francesco in Assisi, featuring rarely seen details of magnificent Italian art Founded in 1228, the Basilica of St. Francis in Assisi is the burial place of St. Francis and the mother church of the Franciscan order of monks. It is also a treasure house of art, decorated with monumental frescoes by some of the greatest painters of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The Upper Basilica is perhaps most famed for its sequence of frescoes that celebrate the life and teachings of St. Francis, attributed to Giotto and his workshop, while Cimabue and his followers were responsible for a series of dramatic scenes from the Old and New Testaments. The Lower Basilica, meanwhile, has been expanded through the addition of several magnificent chapels; their titular saints are commemorated with great imagination and immediacy in works by artists including Simone Martini and Pietro Lorenzetti. This book takes its readers on a guided tour of this magnificent complex, aided by a wealth of beautiful photographs. Rarely seen details allow the personal imprints of the artists to shine through, and demonstrate that beyond their diversity of styles, they were all united by a desire to mirror reality while maintaining a sense of the spiritual and the sublime. This unmatched artistic heritage marks a revolutionary era in the flowering of Italian art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The grace of God, our savior, in these last days appeared in his servant Francis to all who are truly humble and truly friends of holy poverty." Bonaventure's Life of St. Francis Art historian Timothy Verdon tells the story of the life of St. Francis of Assisi in story and art. The 28 stunning thirteenth-century frescoes by Giotto that cover the walls of the famous Basilica in Assisi named for the saint are reproduced in full color, together with a schematic drawing showing their placement in the church. Through detailed descriptions and illuminating commentary on each of the famous frescoes, Verdon tells the story of Francis's extraordinary life, allowing today's reader the opportunity to "read" the art on those walls in the same way that a medieval Christian might have done.
