The Cathedral of Cefalù (See also: “We’ll always have Sicily I: the church of the Martorana in Palermo“ and “We’ll always have Sicily II: the Cathedral of Monreale“)
Especially interesting in Cefalù is the contrast between the mediaeval mosaics and the later Baroque marble framing of the apse.

Me, I'm Nicholas Bakos, a.k.a. "NikoBako." I'm Greek (Roman really, but when I say that in English some five people in the world today understand what I'm talking about, so I use "Greek" for shorthand). I'm from New York. I live all over the place these days. The rest should become obvious from the blog.
