This is a good memory, a view of Rome at night from the Hassler Hotel above the Spanish Steps. My sister and I had a fabulous vacation there. There is old, and then there is
seriously old. Rome is seriously old. When our taxi pulled up to the Roman Forum we each gave an audible gasp when confronted with such antiquity, such history, and the visible remnants of the Glory that was Rome.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Carmen! It brings back such memories. I know exactly how you feel about the Roman Forum! My favorite town.

ReplyDeleteVery nice composition of a complex scene.
ReplyDeleteRome is such a wonderful place. It seems that around every corner you encounter some incredible piece of the past.
If you think Rome is old you should go to Athens, it's thousands of years older and also a fascinating city to visit. Afterall, everything the Romans did they copied from the Greeks ;) I was in Rome just a couple of weeks ago and this painting brings back some wonderful memories, you've captured the magic of the city beautifully.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is so lovely. It makes me want to be there overlooking that wonderful sky.
