Empty Chairs

There is a time of the day when I almost like Effetto Venezia: it is around 8 PM and there is not much people around. Maybe they are still deciding where to wait two hours for a not-so-good pizza or where the pungent smell of the canals mixes better with their food...

I found a lot of empty chairs: twenty in Piazza dei Domenicani.

Seven more on Scali Finocchietti.

Not far, a young violin player was rehearsing in front of a few rows of empty chairs.

Baby Girl and Dog

Cesare Zocchi (Florence, 1851 – Turin, 1922) was a sculptor of some renown in the late years of the 19th century. He is the author of the monument to Giuseppe Garibaldi in Florence (1890) and of the statue of Vittorio Emanuele II in Pisa (1892).

A quite different work of the same sculptor, “Bambina su seggiolone e cane” (Baby girl in a high chair and dog), sits at the entrance of the “Biblioteca dei Ragazzi” (Children's Library).
