Island of Ortygia
I am always taken with Art Nouveau's graceful plant-like curves, and this discovery among the Baroque and Classical arches and columns of Ortygia was unexpected. Doesn't it look like just the place to settle in and write your own Alexandria Quartet? Like the rest of the island, this building had seen better days in 2004, but since then someone has replaced the boarded windows, and you can rent an "airy loft" for less than a stay at a Holiday Inn Express.

Very old, very delightful. Love the way you framed the first shot with the crumbly wall on the right.
Re your comment: Crab, crab, crab! Sheesh! So, I changed it to no word verification, OK? Anything for you!
:-))
Who do I contact to "rent an airy loft? Dying to try this...

Looks like a movie scenery!
