  • Cover photo description:
  • San Miniato al Monte or St. Minias on the Mountain is a basilica in the Italian city of Florence, standing at one of the highest points in the city. It has been described as one of the finest Romanesque structures in Tuscany. The geometrically patterned marble facade was probably begun in about 1090, although the upper parts date from the 12th century or later. The eagle which crowns the facade was the symbol of the Florentine Arte di Calimala (cloth merchants’ guild), who were responsible for the church’s upkeep from 1288.
