A light in the blue

265 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Sant'Ambrogio di Torino, Turin, Piedmont, Italy

The abbey of San Michele (Sacra di San Michele in Italian) is a huge abbey built around the summit of Monte Pirchiriano (960 meters high) at the entrance to the Valle di Susa, the largest valley in the Piedmont region in Italy, in North West of the European Alps.

The abbey is the symbol of the Piedmont region and boasts a thousand-year history, as the first buildings of the church date back to 983 after Christ.

It is dedicated to the cult of San Michele, the holy defender of the faith and the Christian people.

Home of the Rosminian Fathers, it is home to an important library with over 10,000 ancient volumes. Members of the Savoy royal family, the kings of Piedmont until the last century, are buried inside the main church of the Abbey.

It is built on a pilgrimage route over 2000 km long that connects Mont Saint-Michel, in France, to Monte Sant’Angelo, in Puglia.

It was used by the famous Italian writer Umberto Eco as a partial inspiration for the famous novel "The name of the rose", from which the famous film was taken.

When the evening comes and the abbey lights up with lights that enhance the different stones with which it is built, it becomes a real beacon, a light of hope and comfort as it once was for the pilgrims who came to visit from distant countries.

VAST Print™

A VAST Print™ represents the pinnacle of the photographic medium. Each print is a true photograph created specifically for you using light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom with the industry's highest precision exposure technique. Your print is then sealed with a shine-enhancing protective glossy coating*, adhered to a sturdy aluminum composite backing, and finished in one of two ready-to-hang formats:

  • Frameless floating display: A hidden mounting brace on the rear gracefully "floats" the print off the wall for a sleek, modern look.
  • Framed display: The print is mounted inside one of our handcrafted 100% wood frames with a decorative separation between the print and the frame so that the print appears to be floating within the frame, providing depth and elegance to the finished photo.

*Note: a non-glossy, satin matte coating is alternatively available on request.
