- Cover photo description:
- The nobel parishes costitute a particular aspect of the history of Genoa. The Church of San Luca has always represented the exclusive place of worship of the members of the noble Spinola family. In the year 1485the church was entrusted in giuspatronato to the Spinola and Grimaldi families by Pope Innocent VIII. The institution of aristocratic parishes took place in an undefined period, before the 1589 decree of Sixtus V. The Church of San Luca was founded in 1188 byOberto Spinola, on land owned by Oberto Grimaldi, his son-in-law. The façade of the building, rebuilt in the XVII century, still retains the characteristics of the typical genoese church. The decoration of the interior was entrusted to Domenico Piola, a true master of the fresco technique, and to Anton Maria Haffner, famous for his paintings in trompe l’oeil.
