A Lively Journey From Venice to Florence with Mirrors of Italy
The writer recalls a vivid voyage from Venice to Florence, describing gondola rides, signaling with gondoliers, Verona and Juliet's tomb, and a rapid train journey via Bologna. Florence angles include Dante and Galileo homes, Savonarola rooms, Michelangelo across art treasures, and American expatriates, with reflections on weather, history, and Italian modernization.
