Description
The cathedral in Toledo Spain is considered one of the greatest Gothic structures in Europe. This is some detail over the Portal of Forgiveness, which was begun in 1418. It is so called because indulgences were granted to penitents who entered through it. The cathedral is one of the three 13th-century High Gothic cathedrals. It was begun in 1226 under the rule of Ferdinand III and the last Gothic contributions were made in the 15th century when, in 1493, the vaults of the central nave were finished during the time of the Catholic Monarchs.

Una fotografia come questa mi fa toccare con mano, grazie ai mille dettagli, il lavoro certosino e abile dei muratori e carpentieri che hanno sagomato tutte le pietre e le hanno messe una sull'altra fino ad innalzare un tale splendore. Thanks to the thousands of details of this picture, I can "touch" the fine, experienced effort by stonemasons and carpenters in the Middle Ages. They shaped the stones and put them one over the other to erect such a beauty.
