Amazon.com: Books: Fra Angelico: The San Marco Frescoes (#)

„This is what an art book should be, page after page of splendid reproductions, including several full page details of Fra Angelico's greatest works. I was able to spend one day in San Marco, 2 years ago, I was alone most of the morning, but by noon had to contend with hoards of tourists pushing their way to get their 3 second glimsp of each fresco. Looking at these wonderful reproductions, I am reminded of the originals, I am able to see details I could not see peering through the entrances to the monks' rooms, and to recall many details had just forgotten. The text, devoted to the illuminating the art, included a wonderful explaination of composition and perspective.“

„The earliest example of conjoined twins is a 17-cm marble statuette portraying parapagus twins, "the double goddess," dating from the sixth millennium BC. The statue of sisters of Catathoyuk is housed in the Anatolian Civilisation Museum in Ankara, Turkey.1 Another early example is a stone carving of pygopagus twins dated to 80 BC discovered in Fiesole and housed in the San Marco Museum in Florence, Italy. The earliest attempt at separation of conjoined twins took place in Kappadokia, Armenia, in AD 970. When 1 of the male ischiopagus twins died at the age of 30 years, an attempt was made to save the .“

Lorenzo de Medici/Lorenzo The Magnificent | Ruler of Florence and Art Patron (#)

„In 1485, Girolamo Savonarola, a Dominican friar from the convent of San Marco began to harangue the Florentines with prophetic language of the Apocalypse, first from the pulpit of San Marco and then from the cathedral in Florence. Although it had been Lorenzo who brought Savonarola back from exile in Bologna, the friar soon accused his benefactor of ruining the state and squandering the wealth of the people. These accusations begain to undermine Lorenzo's support among the people of Florence.“

Amazon.com: Books: Fra Angelico at San Marco (#)

„Sponsored by the Medici, Fra Angelico's paintings for the priory of San Marco are among the foremost monuments in early Renaissance Florence. This extraordinary cycle, though stylistically au courant, emerges out of a tradition of sacred subject matter favored by the artist's Observant Dominican order. Hood's masterful study persuasively reconstructs the link between the paintings and the institutional spirituality articulated in the order's liturgical habits and literary traditions.“

Our La San Marco Hand Pull (Manual) Espresso Machines -Sweet Maria's Home (#)

„I am very excited about our new (well... very old, but new to me) La San Marco Hand-Pull fully manual espresso machine. I can't tell you how excellent the shots are from this machine, and the level of control you have over the speed and shot volume. The picture to the right is not that impressive in appearance because the machine is fully unshrouded and stripped down (but fully functioning).“

The Espresso Pages from Sweet Maria's: Crema! A Sign of Good Espresso, or a Symptom of Bad Espresso (#)

„A thorough cleaning of a neglected machine can be a considerable undertaking. I cleaned a La San Marco for 2 days straight trying to remove the cause of my bitter espresso. When the machine is clean, you should be able to do a dry-run with no coffee in the portafilter (meaning, run hot water into the cup through the coffee handle) .then let the water cool and taste it.“

„This is the true Venice - the hundreds of little side alleys, side canals etc which most tourists are too afraid to go down. To get back, ask for 'San Marco' or 'Rialto' and you will return to the herd. I am also told that the streets are numbered out from San Marco, so if you want to find you way back keep chosing lower numbered streets.“
