Much like a chameleon, this Doric column camouflaged itself within the wall of Siracusa’s Duomo, staying hidden from the gang while it took in the Sicilian night life mere hours before this picture of such an elusive object was taken. Upon entering the facility, I decided every church should be built around the model of a Greek temple. The Duomo’s central naves are framed by the Doric columns later architects decided to preserve and work with, creating, in my opinion, a sublime and ultra-holy space of worship. In general, I am perturbed when humanity builds over ruins or other places of worship to create their own holy spots, as much of Christian Spain did after 1492 when demolishing mosques and churches in their stead, but I feel this Duomo did a sound job of preserving and balancing the art of the Greeks with their own culture.
