BASILICA OF THE
HOLY SEPULCHRE
Barletta, Italy
The Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre is one of the main
churches in Barletta, Apulia, and owes its name to
the relationship that has linked this building with
the Holy Land since ancient times. The church
stands on the ruins of the mediaeval basilica and
has been a strategic crossroads and a transit point
for pilgrims to the Holy Land ever since. The current
building is the result of numerous architectural and
stylistic transformations that followed one another
from its foundation in the eleventh century until the
second half of the twentieth century.
Most recently, the Basilica was the subject of a
lighting project aimed at bringing out both the
architectural elements that characterise the
building and its decorations, such as the frescoes
around the baptismal font. The area of the
presbytery was also exalted, with an accent light on
the crucifix and the altar.
Templa projectors, with a white light and 40°
optics, were chosen to light the aisles, positioned
on the half-pillars of the central aisle. The crucifix
suspended in the presbytery is lit with Ginko 2.0
projectors with 3000K white light and 17° optics.
Finally, Ginko 3.0 projectors, with 12°x64° optics
adjustable through 360° with a magnet, are directed
on the baptismal font and the frescoes.
