Santa Maria Donnaromita is a former church located on via Paladino in Naples. A church at the site was first founded by nuns putatively fleeing in 1025 from iconoclasm in Constantinople, and thus initially gave the monastery the title: ''Monasterium Monialum Santa Mariae de Percejo de Constantinopoli ordini Cisterciensium regulae San Bernardi''. In time this became the church of ''Santa Mariae dominarum de Romania de Neapolitanum ordinis Cisterciensis''.〔(Notizie del bello dell'antico e del curioso della città di Napoli ), Volume 3, 1870, by Carlo Celano, Giovanni Battista Chiarini, page 648.〕 By 14th century a church on the present plan was built, and refurbished in the 16th century by Giovanni Francesco di Palma along with construction of the convent and cloisters by Giovanni Vincenzo Della Monica. Further reconstructions in the 16th and 17th centuries gave the complex its Baroque imprint. In the 19th century, the church was suppressed and became an engineering school. It was damaged during the Second World War. The interior ceiling (1587-1590) was decorated by Giovanni Andrea Magliuolo and painted by Teodoro d'Errico; on the counterfacade is an ''Epiphany'' (1728), while the cupola was frescoed by Luca Giordano. In the apse are the remains of the main altar sculpted by the brothers Bartolomeo and Pietro Ghetti; The pavement was designed by Donato Massa. In the chapel, Duke Theodore's remains are housed in a reused ancient Roman sarcophagus. == References == 〔 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「Santa Maria Donnaromita, Naples」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
