Towns & Cities
A Passion for Beauty
"...and there are the Venuses and Bacchuses and Adonises making love and getting drunk on the many-hued frescoes on the walls of saloon and bed-chamber; and there are the streets and narrower sidewalks, paved with flags of good hard lava, the one deeply rutted with the chariot-wheels, and the other with the passing feet of Pompeiians of by-gone centuries..." - from The Innocents Abroad by Mark Twain
Squares that are perfect stage sets. Buildings created to enchant, with sumptuous facades and interiors that house unimaginable art treasures. Towers constructed to bear witness to power that now regale unforgettable panoramas to those bold enough to climb to the top. Streets resembling open-air museums. Bridges that create harmonious bonds between the banks of rivers. Walls originally designed for defence and later transformed into imposing rings encircling communities intact for centuries.
The taste for beauty is all-pervasive, from the tiny village, to the old town, to cities great and small. Beauty mantles every nook, every view, every thing, to bequeath us monuments of immortal renown and dwellings like no others in the world.
