In a vintage postcard, the building that once housed the Giovanni Battista Niccolini
gymnasium and the
Francesco Domenico Guerrazzi liceo classico, after 1952 liceo classico Niccolini Guerrazzi.
Today the slightly restructured building is part the “Niccolini-Palli” secondary instruction institute. At the end of the street, in both images, we can see the side of the “
Teatro Goldoni” entrance portico.
(Vintage postcard digitized from the collection of Antonio Cantelli)

ReplyDeletePlease have you all a wonderful Easter Sunday.
This is a great post VP.
ReplyDeleteThe cars look a bit more modern in your photo.
ReplyDeleteI love your new/old photographs, VP. This one looks very much the same, though it has had some refurbishment. Nice!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Easter.
Nice historical comparison!
ReplyDeleteIt was beautiful then and now.
ReplyDeleteLovely place!

I like the form of the old windows more.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Wow! I'm always happy to see vintage photos...and seeing the NOW, it's priceless. This is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Trillian went to this school!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they added a couple of windows! The postcard is just as lovely as your photograph :D
ReplyDeleteCool pictures. I think I like better the original arched top in the windows. I wonder what was that pile of things near the horse.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you!

ReplyDeleteThere is something so elegant about horses...
ReplyDeleteSorry I'm late, happy Easter!
Lucky Trillian to go to such a nice school.

ReplyDeleteNot much has changed, except maybe a few windows. Cool look back to the past.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the contrast of what it looked like way back when and what it looks like now.
ReplyDeleteOh they've replaced the arch windows with square, not too much more change, wonder what the colour was back then VP?
