SANTORINO- ISOLE CICLADI- L'ISOLA DALLE CENTO CHIESE TRA MONUMENTALI E RUSTICHE

-

fotografia.cultura.gov.it/iccd

The image features a monochromatic photograph of architectural structures, possibly from an old postcard or historical publication. In the foreground is a prominent domed building with a cross atop its peak, indicative of Christian architecture, likely a church on Santorini in Greece given the text reference to "Santorino" and "3 sole cicladi." The dome's smooth surface reflects light differently across various points, suggesting a possible weather condition or time when captured. Surrounding this central structure are multiple smaller buildings with varied architectural styles: some have arched doorways, others feature simple geometric shapes typical of Cycladic architecture.

The background reveals more of the landscape including additional buildings and possibly an expansive body of water which could be indicative of Santorini's volcanic terrain or its proximity to a harbor. The sky is partly visible at the top right corner, with soft shading that might suggest either dawn or dusk lighting conditions.

Text on the image includes "Santorino," followed by what appears to be Italian phrases referring to sunlight and ancient churches in contrast between monumental and rustic styles ("L'isola dalle cento chiese 3 sole tra monunntentali e rustiche"). The text suggests that this photograph is part of a collection or series highlighting notable structures on the Greek island.

ISOLE CICLADI-SANTORINO- UNA VIA aGRADINI

fotografia.cultura.gov.it/iccd

The image depicts an old, monochromatic photograph of winding steps leading up a steep hillside in Santorini. The architecture is reminiscent of Cycladic structures found on the Greek island, characterized by its white-painted walls and simple design. A church with a dome is visible at the top of the stairs, suggesting that this could be part of a religious or historical site within the town. Text overlays indicate it's an old postcard from Santorini featuring "3sole Cialadi" (three suns) as mentioned on one side and "Una via a gradini" which translates to 'a way with steps' on the other, indicating these may be used for climbing or walking up slopes. The image appears aged with some wear marks visible around its edges, adding to its vintage charm.
