Court of the Dead

Description

A cloister in Florence, where the entire ground surface, and a quarter of the way up the walls, is given over to funerary tablets of the many laid to rest here. The catastrophic flood of 1966 all but destroyed the centuries-old frescos.
4/18 Second Place (B&W / Techniques)
