Florentine Skyline

Tuesday, September 14, 2010
Florence, the city of the Renaissance. Home of Michelangelo and Dante, burial place of Galileo and the above. This is the city of spectacular art. And thanks to the Medici's, art was supported and encouraged. A definite must see for anyone interested in art history and the history of Italy.

Skyline of Florence

Saturday, September 12, 2009

Here we are in the city of the Renaissance, Florence Italy. WOW!!! Home to Michelangelo, the Medici's, to Dante, where Leonardo di Vinci painted the Mona Lisa and where Galileo is buried. And we saw it all today. Quite a way to wrap up a trip to Italy.
