Magic Moments in Florence

Temporarily out of stock

Eighteenth and nineteenth century travellers to Florence filled their journals with sketches and drawings which, often better than words, managed to capture intense but fleeting impressions, fix curious or unusual sights and highlight the contrast between the monuments of the past and the business of everyday life. Magic Moments in Florence is such a traveller's journal, the result of many visits which the author has made to Florence at different times and under the sway of different moods.
