  • {PDF EPUB} Baroque Goa the Architecture of Portuguese India by José Pereira Church of Our Lady of Divine Providence
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Baroque Goa The Architecture of Portuguese India by José Pereira Church of Our Lady Of Divine Providence. The Church of Our Lady of Divine Providence of Old Goa pertained to the vanished Theatine Convent of Saint Cajetan, a patron saint frequently but mistakenly attributed to the church itself. The convent building was located immediately to the south of where the Palace of the Fortress once stood, near the Arch of the Viceroys. Nowadays only the church attests to the presence of this order of Italian friars in the territories of the Portuguese Padroado of the Orient. And it was precisely due to their refusal to submit to the Portuguese monarchs that the Theatine friars who had arrived in Goa in 1639 were forced to leave the territory. Before that happened, between 1656 and 1672, they built their convent. According to Rafael Moreira, it was designed by the Theatine Father Carlo Ferrari, assisted in the task by Bother Francesco Maria Milazzo. The convent’s builder was Manuel Pereira. Regarding the church, Rafael Moreira establishes the influences of Saint Peter’s in the Vatican only with respect to the façade; its plan derives from the one at the sanctuary of Madonna della Ghiara in Reggio- Emilia. Articulation between the façade and volume of the church, with its centred plan, is done via a galilee running the width of the building. The high altar is located above this entrance space and is possibly the most Portuguese feature of the entire church. The worship space is arranged around a central square crowned by a dome over pendentives, in whose drum are eight rectangular windows.

  • Goa: Fontainhas and SãO Tome Fontainhas Is the Heritage Quarter
    Goa: Fontainhas And São Tome by traveldesk Fontainhas is the heritage quarter of the capital city of Panaji, lying along the banks of the ancient Ourem creek. The new commercial complex of Patto along with the main Kadamba bus stand, lies just across the creek from here. This old district or latin quarter has a completely different atmosphere from the hustle and bustle of the main city, with its Mediterranean appearance, narrow streets and overhanging balconies of the ancient Portuguese style houses. The area was laid out on reclaimed land in the late eighteenth century by "the Mossmikar", a Goan expatriate so called because he had made his fortune in the Portuguese colony of Mozambique. The entire area is laid out at the base of a hillside known as Altinho, and the natural springs on the hillside, gave the name Fontainhas to the area. The old world charm of the area is retained due to the fact that most houses in the area, which are built in the classic Portuguese style are still painted in the traditional colours of pale yellow, green or blue, and have red-tiled roofs with overhanging balconies. Towards the southern end of the ward of Fontainhas, lies the old (built in 1880) but excellently maintained Chapel of St Sebastian. It dominates the small square where the locals used to hold the lively annual street festa to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Livrament. There is an old traditional well attached to the Chapel. The Chapel contains a striking lifelike crucifix, which once hung in the Palace of the Inquisition in Old Goa.
