EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting village of Sesto Calende, Varese. The focal point of this image is none other than the magnificent apse and bell tower of the church of San Donato, standing tall against a backdrop of rolling hills. The Romanesque architecture takes center stage, showcasing its timeless beauty that has withstood the test of centuries.

As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we can't help but be transported to the Middle Ages when Europe was bustling with life and faith.
