Civitanova

“In 1060 the Normans made Lanciano a centre of the unified Kingdom of Sicily. Lanciano flourished again and in 1340 it was the largest city in Abruzzo with 6,500 inhabitants, renowned industries (ceramics, wool, silk, goldworks, ironworks), receiving important privileges by both Frederick II and his son Manfred, with a substantial administrative autonomy”

    En general je suis assez critique avec le HDR, mais dans cette image il est très bien gestioné. Bravo!!! Les detail et tonalités des maisons sont supperbes, et le fenêtre en première plain fait un très effective cadrage.
