The photo hunt for this week is 'stripes' .
I hunted and hunted, and finally decided on
Duomo di Orvieto with it's stripes
of black and white marble
and golden mosaics.
It is one of Italy's most fabulous cathedrals.

I really thought the first photo was Moorish style but scrolling down I knew its Roman. Great take this week
Italian stripes are the best, aren't there?! Great shots! Thanks for visiting mine and have a great weekend!
Excellent set. I love the first picture. I thought at first it might be the Duomo at Siena. I haven't been to Orvieto yet but your pictures really show the beauty.
Wow that is a stunning cathedral. Great choice for this week's theme!
What majestic stripes! Fabulous photos.
Have a good weekend.
oops. sorry for the typo. That was supposed to say "aren't they?!"
:)
These are stunning! I've been to Florence, Pisa and Rome but we went from Florence to Rome and the train and didn't get to see any of the places in between. The carvings on the rose window are magnificent and what color on the facade...
Thanks for stopping by.
That's great for the theme! Stripes everywhere!
I'm loving all of the "stripes" of the churches I've seen. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos.
I love those Italian "zebra" churches!
Happy weekend!
What a beautiful building and perfect for the theme. Great post.
These are great pictures, very vintage. Thanks for the visit.
Great shots, Sandi. I love Orvieto and its Cathedral.
Wow those are amazing photos...loved the striped building
What beautiful architectural detail!
Good eye!
What a gorgeous cathedral. I love the swirled columns.
Thank you for visiting my photo hunt this week.
Great shots for stripes - those Italian churches are bloody incredible. It is so hard to believe that they have stood for 100s of years and we can't make buildings that last more than 100 as a rule!
I've never seen a building with stripes like that, amazing.
thanks for stopping by
Love your choices. Great perspectives and so fitting for the theme.
Oh my - that's one of my favorite cathedrals! :)
Interesting. I forgot that the sides of this church were striped. Great photos and wonderful choice for the theme this week.
Id' say you nailed this theme several times over! Nice job.
Those are amazing structures. Great details.
