Abruzzo Teramo Teramo S. Berardo, Cathedral1. Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 Exterior views mainly of the facade: doors and portal sculpture by Deodatus; also views of the bell tower, crossing, and dome. Interior views of the restored nave (12th century): capitals, low-relief sculpture and holy water basins. Choir (14th century): the roof, a paschal candlestick, and a pulpit; also numerous views of a silver altar (1433-1438) with scenes from the Life of Christ and his Passion. Sacristy: (16th century) an elaborately carved altarpiece, paintings, and wood furniture. Baroque chapel of S. Berardo (17th century): a cupola, niched statues, ornate capitals, pendentive sculptures, an altar with a marble sarcophagus and ciborium, and a reliquary in the shape of an arm. Negatives (but no prints) show a silver bust of S. Berardo from this chapel. Other interior views include a holy water font, the coat of arms of the Bishop Micozzi, crucifix (13th century), rose window, fresco fragments, a large ciborium, a polyptych (1410) and bishop's throne. Roman trophies (reused Roman spolia, possibly from the amphitheatre) built into the exterior walls of the nave. 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.
