A Walk Through Amalfi’s Duomo of Sant’Andrea

Photo ItalyItalia.com

I think every architectural historian has their absolute favorite building. For some, it is the building that inspired the love and study of architecture, while for others it is a building happened across during travels or studies that once seen was never forgotten. For me, it is the Duomo of Amalfi, which is a building that inspires me in almost indescribable ways. If you haven’t visited this stunning church for yourself, you can head over to ItalyItalia.com and read an article I wrote called A Walk Through Amalfi’s Duomo of Sant’Andrea. Right now it is even featured on the homepage!

Have you visited the Duomo of Amalfi? I would love to hear your thoughts!

    Ciao KC! Grazie! Do you have a favorite building?

    Ciao Chuck! Grazie! I love that photo, too. It really shows how the city is built all around the church.

    Ciao Gil! Thank you so much! I wish I taken that photo. What a great viewpoint to view the city! (It is one of ItalyItalia's photos.) Hope you can visit here in the summer next year!

Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the m Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the morning with music or a song in your head? I do nearly every morning and it’s curious to me what shows up. Usually it’s something I’ve been listening to, but sometimes it’s really random, like someone’s left the music room door slightly ajar in the brain. This morning it was a jaunty version of “Loch Lomond” from the 1940s sung by Maxine Sullivan. (You’d think that would be from the random category but I actually listened to it yesterday.) So that’s what was swinging about in my head as I took a walk early this morning. 🎶

Musing On The Roaring Ocean
by Robert Burns

Musing on the roaring ocean, 
Which divides my love and me; 
Wearying heav’n in warm devotion, 
For his weal where’er he be. 

Hope and Fear’s alternate billow 
Yielding late to Nature’s law, 
Whispering spirits round my pillow, 
Talk of him that’s far awa. 

Ye whom sorrow never wounded, 
Ye who never shed a tear, 
Care-untroubled, joy-surrounded, 
Gaudy day to you is dear. 

Gentle night, do thou befriend me, 
Downy sleep, the curtain draw; 
Spirits kind, again attend me, 
Talk of him that’s far awa!

This morning—after four days of rainy and cloudy mornings—I watched sunrise over the Cilento coastline across the Gulf of Salerno. Late morning it started raining again and it hasn’t stopped. This little pocket of beauty was exhilarating!
