After the chapel and its mosaics we visited a palace exhibit of Flemish paintings in Sicily--some old friends--and then the Royal Garden.
 |
Alas, didn't get the name of this, the signature item of the
exhibit |
 |
Interesting entry into the exhibit hall |
 |
St. Agatha, Ignoto Pittore Flammingo; don't worry, she
was miraculously healed, but died of other less dramatic
causes |
 |
Not sure what his martyrdom was about |
 |
Another Circumcision; Simone de Woebrek |
 |
And of course no collection of martyrdoms would be complete without a
disembowelment |
 |
Jan Provost, Deposition |
 |
Interesting Maddelina, Jan van Scorel |
 |
Beautiful Madonna con Bambino, Joos van Cleve |
 |
Gerard David, Annunciation |
 |
Top of the Porta Nuova, right next to the palace |
 |
Impressive ficus trees |
 |
With a pine growing right next to it |
 |
Back side of the royal palace |
 |
All over the island, the loquats are putting out fruit |
