Lazio Viterbo Bolsena S. Cristina8. Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 Medieval: 11th century nave (consecrated 1077), 9th century ciborium in crypt with Roman spolia, 13th century campanile. Post-medieval: Renaissance tripartite facade of 1492-94 built under Leo X, terracotta tympana, frescoes, painting on panel, painting on canvas, polychrome terracotta sculptures, stucco. Coverage is of the exterior and interior of S. Cristina, including the Chapel of the Miracle of Bolsena, the Grotto of S. Cristina, and the Chapel of S. Michael the Archangel. Antiquities: Roman sarcophagus and architectural fragments displayed in the lapidarium. The grotto of S. Cristina is housed within a supposed temple to Apollo. 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.
