Prepare yourself for some familiar objects caught out of our usual jurisdiction...
We were coming down from the basilica of San Miniato al Monte (St. Minias on the Mountain), when we saw this on the corner of a street with the improbable name of Via dell'Erta Canina (Street of the Canine Slope).
Just before the city walls, still along Via del Monte alle Croci, we saw this “Cross Like an Egyptian” and we knew we were approaching Clet Abraham's territory: he lives and works here, in Florence, after all.

Have you seen his shop? It's in the corner of Via San Niccolò and Via dell'Olmo, by the San Niccolò church.
