Firenze – the next day

What an incredible meal we had around the corner from Florence’s central train station last night. Gemmola was as amazed by the pasta as I was. I have the feeling she will have to be dragged kicking and screaming from Italy to Greece.

A centuries-old painting of Christ on a Florence wall, next to a graffiti replica from 2010. Florence’s public walls are covered with ancient artworks.

Florence’s Duomo may be larger, but Milan’s is more spectacular.

Two examples of a Uffizi exhibition of Caravaggio and others who utilised his style (unfortunately the single piece of Caravaggio’s in the exhibition was the same one used on the promotional posters) – beheadings were a very popular theme.

One hell of a Bella Italiana.
