Gli occhi guardano in su, a scoprire l'ennesima meraviglia di Napoli. E invece il monumentale portale di palazzo Carafa di Maddaloni è lì dalla metà circa del '600, opera straordinaria di Cosimo Fanzago. La novità consiste nel fatto che, dopo un accurato e lungo restauro, alle ore 12.30 del 5 febbraio 2016, sono stati tolti i teli che ricoprivano l'opera, la quale è apparsa nella dicromia del marmo e del piperno che una secolare sporcizia aveva annullato. La monumentalità stupisce! Niente di paragonabile a Napoli, nemmeno a Palazzo Reale. L'unico confronto può farsi con il portale di palazzo Calabritto sull'omonima strada, che però è opera settecentesca di Luigi Vanvitelli. Insomma, un vero e proprio arco di trionfo inneggiante al casato dei Duchi di Maddaloni, sotto il quale sono passati il viceré spagnolo Conte d'Oñatte, Alessandro Scarlatti, la celebre cantante Giulia De Caro, Giambattista Pergolesi, Leonardo Leo, Giacomo Casanova, il commediografo Giambattista Lorenzi, Giuseppe Martucci...

Ma la potenza dei Carafa di Maddaloni non valse ad evitare la "fregatura" da parte di un altro nobile casato, i Doria d'Angri, i quali costruirono successivamente il loro palazzo proprio di fronte al loro. Così, il portale di Fanzago poté essere osservato solo da uno spazio ristretto e dal basso (come si vede nella foto) e non dalla dovuta distanza!
