Cappella Palatina, Palermo (oil on canvas)
2956895 Cappella Palatina, Palermo (oil on canvas) by Leighton, Frederic (1830-96); 40.64x27.94 cm; Private Collection; (add.info.: Leightons early trips to Sicily in the 1840s led eventually to the construction of an Arab Hall inside his house in Kensington in 1877, inspired by the unique fusion of Muslim and Christian styles of the 12th Century Norman buildings he found in Palermo like the Palace of La Zisa, and the Cappella Palatina - the Royal chapel of the Norman Kings of Sicily. The light in this extraordinary chapel reflects from the shimmering Byzantine mosaics in the dome and filters down to a cool blue/green/white inlaid marble floor, and across a muqarnas ceiling in the nave (honeycombed wooden vaulting, subdividing and cascading like wooden stalactites). In this study, Leighton glitters the busy interior with edges of sunlight.); Photo eThe Ms Gallery, London; English, out of copyright

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Cappella Palatina in Palermo, Sicily. Painted by Frederic Leighton, this oil on canvas artwork measures 40.64x27.94 cm and is part of a private collection. Leighton's early visits to Sicily during the 1840s left an indelible mark on his artistic vision, culminating in the creation of an Arab Hall within his Kensington home in 1877. Inspired by the harmonious blend of Muslim and Christian architectural styles found in Palermo's 12th-century Norman buildings like La Zisa Palace and the Cappella Palatina, Leighton sought to recreate their enchanting allure. The photograph captures the ethereal light that bathes this extraordinary chapel, reflecting off shimmering Byzantine mosaics adorning its dome and filtering down onto a cool blue-green-white marble floor. The muqarnas ceiling above resembles cascading wooden stalactites with honeycombed wooden vaulting. In this study, Leighton masterfully infuses sunlight into every corner of the bustling interior, adding a touch of radiance to an already mesmerizing space. Immerse yourself in this image as it transports you to a realm where religious devotion meets medieval grandeur. Experience firsthand the fusion of Italian artistry with Byzantine influences that make Cappella Palatina such a unique treasure within Italy's cultural heritage.
