Church of Santo Domingo de Guzman
at
Jardin Zaragoza 4, Santo Domingo
The fassade of three bodies is like a synthesis of styles: rich baroque the first, timid churiguerra the second and the frankly plateresque auction like two curious little columns, very destroyed, in the form of angels that fold their wings and whose silhouette requires the shape of stipe . The Solomonic columns of the first body are extraordinary for two reasons: the first that move significantly away from the vertical and the second that are monolithic, something astonishing! Columns that are between four and five meters high carved into a single stone! In the second body a magnificent, original and richly ornamented rose. But let's go inside: the proportions, both in the ground and in the elevation, are so perfect that they produce that sensation of serene balance that is only enjoyed in the presence of the classic .
