The image captures every intricate detail of this magnificent cloister, showcasing arches, building elements, decorations, and sections that have withstood the test of time. Each capital and column tells a story of craftsmanship and devotion, while the vaulted ceilings create an awe-inspiring sense of grandeur. As we gaze upon this photograph taken by Alinari in 1955, we are transported back to an era where Christian religious structures were not only places for worship but also architectural marvels.
