Church Of San Sepolcro In Milan

So many amazing churches in Italy, all with something unique inside. San Sepolcro in Milan features a handful of great icon, relic, high frieze sculptures. Devotion comes to 3D life.

The exterior is also a bit unique, done up in Romanesque styled red brick instead of typical stucco.

Nice nave. Icons everywhere. And donating a necklace seems to be a thing.

One of the main friezes, Christ washing the feet of St. Peter. What a nice young man. The curved sculpture is an impressive illusion. Allusion?

More icons. A nun, all crossed. Boy getting a little bread.

Back to Christ, in another impressive high relief frieze. Getting his crown of thorns. Ouch.
