Now that I am back home from our trip to Tuscany, I just want to share some Impressions with you:
This View through an arrow slit in the old walls of San Gimignano stands for the little bit you may glimpse of such a rich region of our planet in such a short time…
The hundreds of etruscan sarcophagi in the museum in Volterra were impressive in sheer numbers and at the same time very varied and individually decorated.
I love a Melusine!
Giacomo Balla painted his self portrait in 1928 and called it „Autocaffè“.
Wouldn`t you love to have a coffee with this witty man?
I really enjoyed walking through the many many self portraits in the Uffizi – what a wonderful idea of hanging these pictures! (And how our feet hurt after hours and hours in one of the most important museums in the world…)
The Coffee shop in the Uffizi has a wonderful sight over Florence.
The Duomo in Siena thrones majestically in the middle of that well preserved town from the middle ages.
(On top of a hill, obviously, like every single settlement in Tuscany.)
Tuscany is well worth any trip, just be sure to bring comfortable sturdy shoes and prepare for some serious stairclimbing in between all the art and history! Oh, and the food… don’t get me started!
Heartfelt, wherever you may be,
