Jesus and Cross Icon Inside Church.
The sacred San Damiano cross kept inside the Basilica di Santa Chiara (Saint Clare Basilica), in the medieval heart of Assisi, in Umbria. Symbol of the spirituality of the Franciscan order, this large Romanesque style crucifix painted on wood and canvas is dated around the year 1100, but its author is unknown. According to the tradition and history of the Saint of the Poor, it was in front of this icon when Saint Francis received the commission from the Lord to rebuild an abandoned and destroyed church in the countryside of Assisi, starting his vocation. An ancient Umbrian city built starting from the 9th century BC, Assisi became in 89 BC an important center of social and economic domination of Ancient Rome. After the fall of Rome and countless looting due to the barbarian invasions, in the Middle Ages Assisi was conquered by the Byzantines and the Lombards, finally ending up under the dominion of the emperor Frederick I the Barbarossa. Assisi is famous for being the city of San Francesco and Santa Chiara (Saint Francis and Saint Clare), a sacred and spiritual place, a world symbol of peace between all the peoples of the earth and the different confessions. The Umbria region, considered the green lung of Italy for its wooded mountains, is characterized by a perfect integration between nature and the presence of man, in a context of environmental sustainability and healthy life. In addition to its immense artistic and historical heritage, Umbria is famous for its food and wine production and for the quality of the olive oil produced in these lands. Since 2000 the Basilica and other Franciscan sites of Assisi have been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Image in high definition format.
