🌊 The Power of Neptune in the Heart of Florence 🌊

Standing tall in the Piazza della Signoria, the Fountain of Neptune commands attention. Sculpted by Bartolomeo Ammannati in the 16th century, the sea god, with his regal pose and flowing beard, once symbolized Florence’s maritime ambitions during the Renaissance.

But look beyond Neptune, and you’ll see two icons of Florence’s skyline: the #tower of the Bargello, once a fortress and now a museum filled with #Renaissance treasures, and the Badia Fiorentina, a historic abbey whose red-bricked spire has watched over the city for centuries. Together, they complete the story of a city where art, power, and devotion have always stood side by side.

#Florence isn’t just a city—it’s a living, breathing masterpiece. Wander through its streets, and you’ll find yourself stepping into #history, where every corner tells a story and every tower holds a secret.

📸 What’s your favorite Florentine landmark?

Michaelangelo's David Gets Cancelled in Florida

Nowadays, even Michaelangelo's great masterpiece "David" doesn't pass muster with Florida book-banning MAGAs, who call it "pornographic." Meanwhile, the mayor of Florence says he'd like to honor the educators in question.

If you have never spent Christmas in Italy you are missing out. They know how to put on a display. One street looks more stunning than the next. A week before the US Thanksgiving the displays go up. #Art #Artist #IrisRichardsonArtist #ArtCollector #BuyIntoArt #ShopEarly #FreeShipping #GiftIdeas #Christmas2022 #Christmas #FediGiftShop https://www.pictorem.com/536608/Golden%20Christmas%20Balls%20Florence.html #FlorenceItaly #Italy #Traveling
