In the heart of Deira, a hamlet of Mesocco, perched on a panoramic terrace on the left side of the valley, there is a small oratory dedicated to Saint Philip Neri.

Beschreibung

Inside the Chapel of St. Philip there are unique frescoes known for their uniqueness and extraordinary beauty. The fresco above the altar depicts the Holy Spirit with a dove, surrounded by angels rising from the clouds. The originally pink angels are darkened by the chemical transformation of lead white, a white pigment that was widely used until the 20th century. was widely used in the nineteenth century. Lead white is a basic lead carbonate, and over time it has been discovered that when the outer layer interacts with substances in the air, it turns into lead sulfide, which has a very dark color. The air pollution has therefore changed the work, so that the angels are almost black and the Holy Spirit is more like a blackbird than a dove.
