Siena's famous Piazza del Campo
|
And its Palazzo Publico
|
From the Palazzo's balcony, looking out over a small part
of the city; note color
|
And up at the great tower
|
The building burrows several stories down into the tufa,
dug out by Etruscans, and there displays its extensive Etruscan
collection
|
As I have already observed, the Etruscans did some nice metal
work, but little else besides dying into these little sarcophagi,
which all look pretty much the same; to me
|
Well, evidently they ate well, even without
pasta and tomato sauce and gelato |
Speaking of which, mountains of gelato...
|
And cute pasta for the American college
students
