Ecco un classico della fotografia! La piazza del Duomo di Pisa è inserita dal 1987 fra i patrimoni dell'umanità dall'Unesco e vi si possono ammirare tre fra monumenti più conosciuti del medioevo italiano: la cattedrale, il battistero e la torre pendente.
La piazza come la conosciamo inizia a essere realizzata nel 1064 quando viene costruito il nuovo duomo della città. Nel 1153 prende il via la costruzione dell’antistante battistero con un diametro pari alla larghezza della facciata del duomo e vent’anni dopo si avvia la costruzione del campanile che subito si inclinò per il cedimento del terreno. La piazza pedonalizzata rivestita da un grande prato erboso assunse l'aspetto definitivo solo nel XIX secolo.
E’ anche definito “campo dei miracoli”, termine coniato nel 1910 da Gabriele d'Annunzio nel romanzo “Forse che sì, forse che no” per sottolineare la straordinaria bellezza dell’impianto architettonico dell’area.

Pisa (Tuscany) - The square of the Duomo
Here it is a classic photo! The square del Duomo in Pisa is inserted since 1987 into the World Heritage sites of UNESCO and we can see three of the best known monuments of the italian middle ages: the cathedral, the baptistery and the leaning tower.
The square, as we know it now, began to be realized in 1064 when the city built the new cathedral. In 1153 began the construction of the opposite baptistery with a diameter equal to the width of the facade of the cathedral and twenty years later it start the construction of the bell tower that immediatly leaned due to the land subsidence. The pedestrian plaza covered by a large grassy meadow assumed its final appearance in the nineteenth century.
The square is also called "Field of Miracles", a term coined in 1910 by the famous writer Gabriele D'Annunzio in his novel "Maybe yes, maybe not," to emphasize the extraordinary beauty of the architecture of the area.

Como antesala al salón de baile principal, la sala Rubén Darío estaba pensada para el descanso de los bailarines. Su decoración es rica en tonos dorados y motivos florales, que cubren todas las paredes y el suelo. Al fondo de la sala, remata el conjunto una chimenea en mármol rojo veteado en blanco con dos esculturas de mujeres a ambos lados.

This was my first visit to the New York Public Library. I spent hours wandering around photographing the building and just sitting and enjoying the space. It's now one of my favorite places in the city.
