  • Lavenham townscapes and architecture: Little Hall, now a museum, was a house built in the 14th century, enlarged in the 16th century, and eventually housed several families.  Restored in the 1920s by the Gayer-Anderson twin brothers, in 1975 it was given to the Suffolk Preservation Trust.  See history and program at http://www.littlehall.org.uk/littlehall/index.htm.  It is the oldest house in Lavenham.

  • Brunilleschi's next major work after the Ospedale degli Innocenti was the Pazzi Chapel, next to the Santa Croce basilica, from 1441-1460.  The Pazzi family, rich Florentine bankers, conspired against the Medici brothers Lorenzo and Giuliani. In 1478 they succeeded in murdering Giuliano during mass in the cathedral.  Lorenzo escaped and became subsequently "Lorenzo the Magnificent."  The Pazzi chapel, however, is a gem of serene beauty.  This exterior shot is the usual one shown in books.  A few tourists come and go on the approach path.

  • Close up of a row of bottles containing various herbal preparations made by the Olivetan brothers at S. Miniato al Monte, Florence. Some are labelled syrup (sciroppo), some elixir (elisir).  The colorful labels seem to be printed from hand cut and hand painted originals  in greens, red, and purples.  The preparations are on display in the pharmacy shop beside the church.

  • San Clemente, marble mosaic floor by the four brothers, known as the Cosmati from their father Cosmatus, between 1190 and 1235.  The floor is seen from a low angle to show extent and complexity of the geometric pattern.  Hexagons, triangles, circles, rectangles, squares, are set in a systematic close fitting design which I thought quite beautiful.
