siena

March 17, 2010
i should have seen this coming
after the volterra episode
but of course i assume the weather will be better
and it's snowing just as much

ha!
well i couldn't do much in siena
because the weather was so hard to function in
but i walked around a little and enjoyed
it's cute little streets

il campo

so
much
snow

il duomo

it was really hard to take pictures
while wet snow was flying everywhere
so most of my photos are from the inside of the beautiful duomo

carvings in almost all of the floors


medieval song book
in the piccolomini library
probably my favorite thing from siena from my visit





please note:
none of the art on the wall
has ever undergone restoration

and i bet it must have looked this beautiful,
if not more, 500 years ago when it was made

i always think libraries are the most beautiful
thanks, siena
