hey so i thought i might as well put up some (just a few though i went a little bit crazy and took MILLIONS) of photos i took during my semester abroad this jan-apr. so wohoo.
mostly of florence (where i was) some of la bella roma, et un peu des photos parisiennes...
to start off..
graffiti in una strada fiorentina (a random street in florence)
such crazy graffito all over!
then...
piazza della signoria (fl.) reflected in a window of a cafe (finestrino dell'cafe) pre-easter...
even the wrapping of the eggs is so aesthetically pleasing and done with such panache!
lord knows how many times i took pictures in the loggia dei lanzi (below)
but it is kinda one of my favorite places EVER!! the scupltures and the light and the benches and the view and all of it= magnificent!
above: Benvenuto Cellini's Perseus (holding the head of medusa) (left), The Rape of Polyxena by Pio Fedi (worked in 19th century) (right) , Palazzo Vecchio (behind)
different view of Polyxena
also a photo i found on wikicommons (didn't take it, nope) of it in ye olden days of c.1870's when they put it in the loggia
wohoo.
more later!
