Padova - Gli affreschi dell'Oratorio di San Giorgio
L'Oratorio di San Giorgio si trova a Padova sul lato destro della Piazza del Santo. Si tratta di un bell'edificio in stile romanico, fatto costruire nel 1377, come cappella per le tombe di famiglia, dal marchese Raimondino dei Lupi di Soragna. L'interno conserva un prezioso ciclo di affreschi, considerato il capolavoro del pittore veronese Altichiero da Zevio. Dipinti verso la fine del Trecento, gli affreschi illustrano, in modo realistico e con stile narrativo, scene del Vangelo e storie di San Giorgio, Santa Caterina e Santa Lucia.

ORATORIO DI SAN GIORGIO, CAPOLAVORO DI ALTICHIERO
A Padova c’è una seconda Cappella degli Scrovegni, per molti ancora da scoprire.
Detta così può suonare esagerato ma l’Oratorio di San Giorgio deve moltissimo al capolavoro di Giotto, di cui è diretta emanazione e condivide l’iscrizione nei beni UNESCO.
Sul finire del Trecento Carrarese, Padova era diventata una capitale dell'arte internazionale. In questo clima di grande fermento, Altichiero da Zevio venne ingaggiato dai marchesi Lupi di Soragna per affrescare la cappella di famiglia in piazza del Santo, oggi chiamata Oratorio di San Giorgio.
Altichiero potè così misurarsi con una superficie di grandi dimensioni, una sorta di "Scrovegni bis", dove liberare il proprio estro creativo, con le storie di San Giorgio, Santa Caterina e Santa Lucia.

Places to see in ( Padova - Italy )
Padua is a city in Northern Italy’s Veneto region. It’s known for the frescoes by Giotto in its Scrovegni Chapel from 1303–05 and the vast 13th-century Basilica of St. Anthony. The basilica, with its Byzantine-style domes and notable artworks, contains the namesake saint’s tomb. In Padua's old town are arcaded streets and stylish cafes frequented by students of the University of Padua, established in 1222.
Though under an hour from Venice, Padua (Padova in Italian) seems a world away with its medieval marketplaces, Fascist-era facades and hip student population.

A Padova c’è una seconda Cappella degli Scrovegni, per molti ancora da scoprire.
Detta così può suonare esagerato ma l’Oratorio di San Giorgio deve moltissimo al capolavoro di Giotto, di cui è diretta emanazione e condivide l’iscrizione nei beni UNESCO.
Sul finire del Trecento Carrarese, Padova era diventata una capitale dell'arte internazionale. In questo clima di grande fermento, Altichiero da Zevio venne ingaggiato dai marchesi Lupi di Soragna per affrescare la cappella di famiglia in piazza del Santo, oggi chiamata Oratorio di San Giorgio.
Altichiero potè così misurarsi con una superficie di grandi dimensioni, una sorta di "Scrovegni bis", dove liberare il proprio estro creativo, con le storie di San Giorgio, Santa Caterina e Santa Lucia.
Qui la narrativa per riquadri tipica di Giotto incontra il gusto gotico di Altichiero, il quale inserisce paesaggi fiabeschi, architetture elaborate e una grande quantità di figure. Il coinvolgimento emotivo non è dato tanto dalle espressioni del viso, quanto dal turbine della folla e dell'azione.
Completata nel 1384, l'opera di Altichiero è l'ultimo capolavoro del Trecento patavino, oggi visitabile grazie alla gestione della Delegazione Pontificia di Padova.
Un tesoro che si colloca per meraviglia a fianco della Cappella degli Scrovegni e del Battistero del Duomo, dipinto da Giusto de Menabuoi.

Padua is a city in Northern Italy’s Veneto region. It’s known for the frescoes by Giotto in its Scrovegni Chapel from 1303–05 and the vast 13th-century Basilica of St. Anthony. The basilica, with its Byzantine-style domes and notable artworks, contains the namesake saint’s tomb. In Padua's old town are arcaded streets and stylish cafes frequented by students of the University of Padua, established in 1222.
Though under an hour from Venice, Padua (Padova in Italian) seems a world away with its medieval marketplaces, Fascist-era facades and hip student population. As a medieval city-state and home to Italy’s second-oldest university, Padua challenged both Venice and Verona for regional hegemony. A series of extraordinary fresco cycles recalls this golden age – including in Giotto’s blockbuster Cappella degli Scrovegni, Menabuoi’s heavenly gathering in the baptistry and Titian’s St Anthony in the Scoletta del Santo. For the next few centuries, Padua and Verona challenged each other for dominance over the Veneto plains. But Venice finally settled the matter by occupying Padua permanently in 1405.
Padua stands on the Bacchiglione River, 40 kilometres (25 miles) west of Venice and 29 km (18 miles) southeast of Vicenza. The Brenta River, which once ran through the city, still touches the northern districts. Its agricultural setting is the Venetian Plain (Pianura Veneta). To the city's south west lies the Euganaean Hills, praised by Lucan and Martial, Petrarch, Ugo Foscolo, and Shelley. It hosts the University of Padua, founded in 1222, where Galileo Galilei was a lecturer.
The city is picturesque, with a dense network of arcaded streets opening into large communal piazze, and many bridges crossing the various branches of the Bacchiglione, which once surrounded the ancient walls like a moat. Padua is the setting for most of the action in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. There is a play by the Victorian writer Oscar Wilde, titled The Duchess Of Padua.
Saint Anthony's Basilica is the best-known tourist site in Padova - millions of pilgrims visit every year. Built immediately after "The Saint's" death in the 1200s, it houses his tomb and notable relics. The statues and crucifix on the main altar are by Donatello, as is the statue of horse and rider in the square in front of the church (called "Gattamelata" - "the honeyed cat").
St. George's Oratory (Oratorio di San Giorgio). A beautiful, frescoed, and generally empty hall on the south side of the piazza next to the Basilica di Sant'Antonio. The paintings were done by two of Giotto's students, and though they are not as magnificent as those in the Cappella degli Scrovegni, you can sit down and gaze at them undisturbed for as long as you like.
Scrovegni's Chapel (Cappella degli Scrovegni) is in the north of the city center, not far from the bus and train stations. The walls and ceilings are covered in frescos by Giotto, completed in 1303-1305. The chapel has been well preserved and the art is very impressive. Some of the techniques used were well ahead of their time. A must-see for art and art history fans.
At 90.000 square meters, Prato della Valle is the biggest square in Europe and probably one of the most beautiful in the World. Historically a Roman theater and later a fairground, it was redone in 1775 to the present layout: a large central grassy area, surrounded by a statue-lined canal, then a broad expanse of flagstones before a couple lanes of traffic are allowed to trickle around it in the distance.
Santa Giustina Basilica is along one side of Prato della Valle. When you visit, don't miss the Martyr's Hallway off of the right-front corner of the basilica. Roman ruins, including an Arena. The Arena is smaller and less impressive than those in Verona or Rome, but well-located in a lovely and well-maintained park.
Chiesa Eremitani, near Scrovegni's Chapel, has an unusual wooden ceiling. The church was badly damaged in WWII, and much of its artwork was destroyed, but what remains is beautiful. The Duomo, or cathedral, is smaller than the two basilicas but not by much - don't be misled by the relatively small façade on Piazza del Duomo. Michaelangelo was involved in the cathedral's design.
