RE: [ENG] San José de Chacao Ecclesiastical Parish / [ESP ]Parroquia Eclesiástica San José de Chacao

in Architecture+Design3 years ago

Greetings friend Marcos. It's a great privilege to virtually experience the pioneering Catholic church of the Chacao municipality, the Church of San José de Chacao, from your awesome publication! Aside from its standard Spanish colonial architectural style with touches of Baroque characteristics, the wooden elements of its interior such as the parish benches, wall artifacts, plus the golden pulpit, give the entire space a warm, welcoming, and solemn atmosphere - suitable for religious services and prayerful worship.

What interesting detail inside the church has caught your attention @marcosmilano71?

Hello friend Erne. @storiesoferne. I greet you with respect and affection from the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Thank you for commenting on this post and thank you very much for your support and friendship. I love that you asked me that question because my wife and I agreed on some details: the golden pulpit caught our attention immediately, the altarpiece, also golden, of the main altar is very beautiful, the stained glass windows that function as a skylight or skylight, They are also very decorative, the wooden ceilings, similar to the original ceilings of the Church ... but there was a modern detail that, in particular, caught my attention because it seemed to me that it was not adequate and that it took away the beauty of the interior of the temple, that detail I could not show it here due to the poor connection and constant internet failures, that detail is a spiral staircase and also a lattice, which is located at the entrance of the left side nave (North) that is used to access the church choir. (Annex photograph). My wife loved the lamps. Thanks and infinite blessings to you and your loved ones. Receive a big hug full of positive energy and lots of light.

Hola amigo Erne. @storiesoferne. Te saludo con respeto y cariño desde la República Bolivariana de Venezuela. Gracias por comentar esta publicación y muchas gracias por tu apoyo y amistad. Me encanta que me hayas hecho esa pregunta porque mi esposa y yo coincidimos en algunos detalles: el púlpito dorado nos llamó la atención de inmediato, el retablo, también dorado, del altar mayor es muy bonito, los vitrales que funcionan como tragaluz o claraboya, además son muy decorativos, los techos de madera, similares a los techos originales de la Iglesia... pero hubo un detalle moderno que, en lo particular, me llamó la atención porque me pareció que no era adecuado y que le quitaba belleza al interior del templo, ese detalle no logré mostrarlo aquí por la mala conexión y constantes fallas de internet, ese detalle es una escalera tipo caracol y además enrejada, que está ubicada en la entrada de la nave lateral izquierda (Norte) que la utilizan para acceder al coro de la Iglesia. (Anexo fotografía). A mi esposa le encantaron las lámparas.
Gracias y bendiciones infinitas para ti y para tus seres queridos. Recibe un fuerte abrazo lleno de energía positiva y mucha luz.
