Cremisi Crocifissione nella cappella di Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta a Positano - Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“Crimson Crucifixion in the Chapel of the Church of Santa Maria Assunta in Positano - Painting by Dino Carbetta”…
Amidst the breathtaking landscapes of the Amalfi Coast, my journey led me to the enchanting village of Positano. The drive along the high cliffs, winding down the narrow lane from Sorrento, was nothing short of exhilarating. The sensory overload of Positano's beauty and its photogenic allure left me captivated. Navigating the village's single lane, which winds down from the top and back up to where it began, presented a unique challenge. After circling the entire village three times, I finally reached the parking garage by the hotel, positioned about 2/3rds up the facing village in the captivating image before you. The descent down the winding road and steep staircases, though strenuous in the late May sun, became a memorable part of the adventure. Upon reaching the beach and marina, any exhaustion I felt dissipated in the face of Positano's plush beauty. Despite the challenges posed by the multitude of tourists and the intense sunlight, I endeavored to capture the essence of this coastal haven. As I traversed the beach and shoreline, the late afternoon sunlight, piercing through the mountaintop, blinded me momentarily. It was during this encounter with the radiant glow that the Church of Santa Maria Assunta emerged before me. Positioned strategically in the heart of the town, with the Azzurro Mediterranean Sea as its backdrop, the church's colorful majolica tiled cupola stands as an iconic symbol of Positano. Delving into the ancient roots of this sacred place, I discovered a hidden gem within the church—a Crucifix housed in a small chapel. Dating back to 1159, this chapel was dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is here that Santa Maria, with her blessed and watchful eye, continues to oversee Positano, welcoming all to this seaside paradise.
