Umbria Terni Terni S. Maria dell'Oro, Convent church0. Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 One exterior view of this 15th-century convent church rebuilt in the 17th century. Interior views focus on the coffered ceiling; a saint or friar is painted on each coffer. Also views of paintings and a crucifix. Negatives show immured relief sculpture, perhaps Roman spolia. Object Notes: Hutzel photo campaign date: 9/29/82 General Notes: This monument is discussed in Hutzel's notes "Terni - Konvent di S. Maria dell'Oro" but does not appear in TCI. German-born photographer and scholar Max Hutzel (1911-1988) photographed in Italy from the early 1960s until his death.
