PALAZZO
BENEVENTANO:
Located
on via Nazionale in a narrow alley on the right hand side, in its enchanting
baroque style, appears the magnificent palazzo Beneventano. The impressive
architecture, without doubt, makes of this building one of Scicli’s most
important monuments as well as one of the most typical in the iblean
province. The
corner of the building which is surmounted by a cornice, that functions as a
linkage between two the prospects that are stylistically identical and at
the same time defines the building’s height, is probably the most
beautiful part of the whole building. It is adorned with artistically
decorated ashlars that are enriched by two caps of masts at the top and by a
statue of Saint Joseph at the bottom. The balconies with their peculiar iron
bar railings and their sustaining brackets, that resemble fantastic animals,
are remarkably beautiful. The arched windows’ keystones on the lower floor
are decorated with masks and grotesque human figures. The Palazzo
Beneventano late baroque architecture is amongst Sicily’s most original. |
