A visit to the Campidoglio to see some of ancient Rome. When we got there the sun was setting, making it even more beautiful, if that's possible.
Scaffolding is a fact of life in Italy
But usually the scaffolding is quite illusionistic, mimicking the actual architecture itself
For example, with just a quick glance you might not realize that this entire building (the Palazzo Venezia) is completely covered with scaffolding
Room with an enviable view
One of the many reasons I never want to leave
Pietro da Cortona's Santi Martina e Luca in the background
The buildings of the Capitoline itself were rebuilt by Michelangelo. Ever the sculptor he incorporated little details everywhere.
