San Domenico is a Gothic-style, Roman Catholic church and convent located on Via San Domenico #1 in the town of Chieri, Province of Turin, region of Piedmont, Italy. ==History== Initially the Dominicans had been welcomed a the end of the 13th-century to Chieri by the Broglia family.〔(Delle storie di Chieri libri Quattro ) by Luigi Cibrario, page 323-324.〕 Construction of the church and convent began in the 14th-century, and over the next hundred years chapels for wealthy families were added to the temple. The lateral windows have an organic rounded shape but the walls contain protruding pilasters that buttress the walls and facade each ends in a spire. The interior columns have bicolored horizontal striations. On the lateral walls of the choir, above the wooden stalls, are two large canvases depicting the ''Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes'' and a ''Resurrection of Lazarus'' by Guglielmo Caccia. The Chapel of the Rosary contains a canvas with the ''Virgin an Child'' and the ''Story of the Rosary'' also by il Moncalvo.〔(Convento San Domenico, Chieri ).〕 The first chapel on the left houses a copy of a ''Deposition'' by Gaudenzio Ferrari, and of a painting by Guercino housed in the church of San Domenico, Turin.〔(Comune of Chieri ), entry on church.〕 The Dominican order still presides over the convent and church. A priest ordinated in this church, Giuseppe Girotti, died at Dachau on April 1, 1945, he was beatified at Alba on April 2014. A Statue in his honor has been placed in the church.〔(Convent of San Domenico ), information on Giuseppe Girotti.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「San Domenico, Chieri」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
