The Fortress

This architecture shot was captured by Photographer and Digital Artist, Scott Allen Wilson in Verona Italy. Covered by a tall brick fortress is the Castelvecchio tower that rises high and stands out with the clear sky in the background. The patterns of this image can provide dynamism to any decoration style! The print has been realized on glossy Fuji Crystal Archive paper and mounted beneath acrylic glass. The mounted print is surrounded by a beautiful walnut solid wood frame. Every element of this piece was individually selected with the intention of being a part of a unified piece of art.

I think this print perfectly encapsulates the essence and the energy of Verona, Italy. I hope you love it 🙂

Thoughts and Ponderings about The Fortress

Castelvecchio, a medieval castle located in Verona, Italy, was built using a combination of brick and stone. The main structure of the castle was constructed using brick, which was a common building material in the region during the medieval period. The brickwork was then faced with large, carefully cut stones that were used to reinforce the walls and add a decorative touch to the building.

The stones used in the construction of Castelvecchio were likely sourced from nearby quarries, and were carefully selected for their durability and quality. Some of the stones used in the castle’s construction are highly ornate, with intricate carvings and sculptures that demonstrate the skill and artistry of the masons who worked on the building.

In addition to brick and stone, Castelvecchio was also built using other materials, including wood, iron, and mortar. These materials were used to construct the castle’s towers, gates, and other elements, and helped to reinforce the building’s structure and make it more secure.

Today, Castelvecchio is considered one of the finest examples of medieval architecture in Italy, and its combination of brick and stone has helped to ensure its preservation and longevity. The castle is a popular tourist attraction, and visitors can admire its impressive fortifications, towering walls, and ornate decorative elements, which are all testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the masons and builders who created this magnificent building.
