Travel Pics: Firenze
After Rome, I spent a couple of days in Florence, which is the city-state that owned the Pisa Cesare lived in. It's also where a bunch of his classmates are from, where some of the scenes are set, etc etc. There's not a whole lot here that super directly relates to him, but Pisa is Medici territory and I kind of love the Medici now thanks to his canon.
This is pretty much how both Pisa and Florence are shown in canon (see the icon I used for this post). Florence is adorable and I loved it the most, btw. This is Angelo, and he is from Florence and holy shit he might as well be an actual tour guide in Florence, I swear the tour I got was half info on buildings half things Angelo actually says in canon.
...Anyway.
This is the Medici palace (Cesare went there)!
The inside courtyard had a, uh, modern art display, so my pictures from there aren't really relevant.
This is the Piaza de San Marco, where Savonarola both preached and was executed (Cesare went there)!
Right there, apparently.
And this is a Medici palace that was built some time later, but look it's got a picture of il Magnifico kyaa kyaa, and also this famous portrait of Machiavelli, the guy who wrote The Prince!
They are giving him a giraffe because that is how much he ruled.
It also had a bust modeled after his death mask, apparently.
So, yes. Florence! Things that are tangentially related to my rp account! \o/;;
