Gesù Calma la Tempesta a Marina Grande Sorrento – Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“Jesus Calms the Storm in Marina Grande Sorrento – Painting by Dino Carbetta” ...
This stormy image of the lone antique fishing boat is one of the most iconic seaside views from Sorrento. In this painting, my imagination placed Jesus in the boat, a poignant symbol of faith amidst adversity. The lone boat represents various perceptions and creative thoughts, portraying stillness and beauty among the restless seas. This painting recalls Saint Matthew’s account of Jesus calming the winds and the sea: "As Jesus got into a boat, his disciples followed him. Suddenly a violent storm came upon the sea so that the boat was being swamped by waves, but he was asleep. They came and woke him, saying, 'Lord, save us! We are perishing!' He said to them, 'Why are you terrified, O you of little faith?' Then he got up, rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. The men were amazed and said, 'What sort of man is this, whom even the winds and the sea obey?'" (Matt. 8:23-27). One of the highlights of my Italian journey was stumbling upon the tiny Marina Grande fishing village. It was as if I’d walked back in time and merged into this ageless world with its own pace and traditions. Life here has its rhythm—a closely-knit community anchored in family principles, hard work, and religious traditions. The people cherish the sea and live in symbiosis with it. Time seems to move more slowly here than anywhere else in the world. My eyes were blessed with an extraordinarily beautiful scene, as a permanent smile adorned my face, and my camera captured the essence of this tiny bay nestled within the bygone fishing village. As night fell, the water's reflections and resting fishing boats posed for a few more images, while fish jumped for their dinner. It was time to enjoy the day's catch at Ristorante di “Zi'Ntonio Mare.” The epicurean delights, especially the calamari, olive bread, wine, and the main course of Il pesce San Pietro (St. Peter's fish), were authentic perfection.
