SAN GIORGIO CATHEDRAL

A final two shots from the many I took of the cathedral and its museum in Ragusa Ibla.
• On the left is the cathedral organist practising his music.
• On the right is a picture of a life-size door which we saw in the museum. I cannot date this artistic piece but in seven panels it shows the seven sorrows of the Virgin Mary and in the eighth panel is a description in Latin.
Thank you very much for looking and for your wonderful comments and FAV’s on yesterday’s picture.
BTW today is Fathers' Day here. A happy day to all fathers.
Beautiful shots.

When I go into these beautiful cathedrals, It is such a strange feeling to come over you. Just to sit there and think of the history contained in this building

My goodness, a monster of an organ. I almost missed the organist

Nice presentation, that is one large organ

If that is a person the organ must be enormous. Wow! The door is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

That looks a very handsome organ - the organist is almost lost within it! The painted door is exquisite.

My goodness that organ is awesome!! I can imagine what it must sound like with a good tocatta and fugue coursing through its pipes! Such beautiful artwork on the door too.
