On the east side of “Piazza Cavour” we find “Via Maggi”, formerly part of a “Via degli Spalti” (Embankments Road) because it ran outside the ancient walls.It has several interesting buildings, some renewed and a few in need of some attention.Just before getting back to “Piazza Cavour” we find “Piazza Giorgio Caproni”, one of the newest squares in town.A scene of “La prima cosa bella”, a movie by Paolo Virzì almost completely located in Livorno, was filmed here last May.

Looks like someone forgot to pull the drapery inside before shutting the window.
The second...well, it does need a bit of work.
The third - hmmm...this must have some meaning but I have a hard time understanding why anyone would put something like this on his/her building.
Thanks, Trillian, for you wonderful comments!
Some interesting and artsy building details indeed! The first photo reminds me how our youngest daughter tries to shut the car door without getting the seatbelt back inside first!
Like all three for different reason...a story for each. Maggi is our dog's name!
I wonder what he is laughing about in the third photo :)
The composition on the first photo is really nice and the movement of the curtain (?)just adds to it.
Freedom to curtains! Glad it escaped.
I enjoyed seeing the clip from "La prima cosa bella."
Interesting series of pics. I do like gargoyles. MB
Each one of them are beautiful!
Thanks for sharing.
Love the composition of that first shot. The escaped curtain is full of symbolism.
I would just love to be greeted by that face every day!
Fantastic shot of the curtain flying out of the window! Very charming. Such atmosphere.
I'm struck by the colors. And that person may need some new drapes.
I really like the first image with the curtain flying :)
As always the pics of this special Italian place are fascinating!
God bless you!

I could look at shots of old windows and shutters all day but that first shot of yours is special. I love the life that the curtain gives to the photo. Really super. As if it's escaped. One wonders what goes on inside, who lives in this room.
Veramente italiana la prima foto! Mi piace molto! :-)
Love that open window! Great shot.
Love that blowing curtain - how on earth did it get outside? Or maybe it's a secret sign: my went to Pisa, come on up.
