Tuscany 2

Here is the next batch of pictures from my travels in Tuscany. The first again is from Pisa, and the rest from Florence. I have long been fond of statue photography, and the opportunities for this sort of work are ample in Florence. It fills me with wonder that so these places are so replete with works of true human genius. I wonder how much even decoration has become a mere commodity in the contemporary age. Careful art is far more satisfying.

Scholarly Contemplation

Hellenic Grace

This last photograph is actually of the site of our conference. The Villa Schifanoia

Once more into the breach,
