Stunning, stunning building. Took over 500 years to build.
Front doors all carved in 3 D relief. Each little square a different Biblical scene
or picturing a Saint getting killed or some such.
The shiny bits are caused by people touching and rubbing
either for luck or for religious reasons. I wonder what the original colour of this door was.
Another side of the Duomo Square in Milan.
The compulsory Statue in the middle of the square. This one of a local hero.
Front door of a Museum advertising Leonardo's works inside.
A couple of scenes from St Michel church looking down the Valley towards the Alps and France.
Misty day - difficult to show the massive mountains.
Ancient ruins of original St Michel.
Another of the Valley in the other direction. Each group of buildings is a different village.
St Michel
St Michel defeating the dragon. Dragon is on the ground at his feet.
Rice fields near Turino.
