Lazio Roma Subiaco Sacro Speco15. Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 Exterior views (Medieval core collection). Interior views of monument, with extensive coverage of 14th c. frescoes of the Sienese school in the upper church and many views of the rock cut chapels of the lower church, including Sacro Speco, where young S.

Byzantine frescoes; Scala Santa and Cappella della Madonna, both decorated with Sienese school frescoes, and Grotta dei Pastori, with 8th c. Byzantine fresco. _ German-born photographer and scholar Max Hutzel (1911-1988) photographed in Italy from the early 1960s until his death. The result of this project, referred to by Hutzel as Foto Arte Minore, is thorough documentation of art historical development in Italy up to the 18th century, including objects of the Etruscans and the Romans, as well as early Medieval, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque monuments. Images are organized by geographic region in Italy, then by province, city, site complex and monument.
