This photo sums up a few important details about Verona:1. Valerio Catullo, was born in Verona - about I a.C., famous poet of his time,
he was probably the first veronese to become famous. Our airport is named
after him.
2. The beautiful marble ornament (a Siren) is one of the many roman
stones scattered in town.
3. Fashion, not a detail here in Verona but a big business. Lots of famous
designers opened their flag shops in the three top shopping streets (this one is Corso Portoni Borsari and the famous designer is Etro).
4. It's raining again!

You're Goooooddd!! Alway love the info part. One of my favorite streets the C.P. Borsari and the rain reallllllly depresses me A LOT!!
I found this blog a few days ago. I grew up in Verona and now I am in far-away Colorado. Thanks for bringing my hometown a little closer each day.
Magari ci possiamo incontrare la prossima volta che torno in citta'.
I like all the details of the shot (and especially the Etro style!). The Roman stone is pretty amazing.

oh I like this detail, how odd it is. Everything about this is so graphic, with the house number and the street sign.
love that you got a bit of the street alongside!
Great shot. I love the blue umbrella!
One of the things I love abut Italy is the bits of Roman ruins scattered around.
Love the Roman stone detail!
