Rose Rosse e Tulipani
Red roses and tulips
Gracing a restaurant table
at Rome's prettiest little piazza.

My Favorite Corner
One of the world's most beautiful city squares,
Michelangelo's Piazza del Campidoglio.
Roman Capitol Hill

Arance Tarocco di Sicilia
Tarocco oranges from Sicily
Unequalled flavour.
Campo de' Fiori

Red-and-White Checkered Tablecloth
Yes, this is Rome too.
Somewhere between the Pantheon
and Fontana di Trevi.

The Colours of Rome
Sunlight caressing a brick-red façade
and a large green leaf.

On top of the Spanish Steps,
diagonally opposite Villa Medici,

All pictures are "clickable".
The first and the last image
- when clicked upon -
offer each a scene
from the movie "Big Night":
In case you are hungry,
make sure to have food nearby,
a multi-course authentic Italian dinner
is being served
!

If you are interested in the "Colours of Rome"
I recommend Marcella Morlacchi's articles
in the magazine "Roma ieri, oggi e domani",
published between 1988 and 1991
by Newton Compton Publishers, Rome.
