On a scorching Florentine afternoon, I paused to capture Porta San Gallo, a historic gateway built in 1285 that once welcomed travelers into the city. Framed beneath its ancient arch, the dynamic sculpture Ercole e il Centauro Nesso by Giambologna (1599) evokes movement and resilience, standing as a powerful contrast to the stillness of stone and the weight of centuries. A moment suspended between past and present.

Une delle tante porte nelle città antiche. Non per questo meno interessante. Si trova in una bella piazza nella periferia di Firenze (bah, periferia in senso che non c'è nel cntro centro), mantenuta bene, senza aggiungere nulla di più. Bella per fare uno scatto. Forse potrebbe avere un cartellino con un po' d'informazione.
