Old versus New

Until September 14, 2025, Florence’s historic Piazza della Signoria hosts a striking new addition to its artistic landscape: Time Unfolding, a monumental 4m high bronze sculpture by British artist Thomas J Price

Contrasting with the Fountain of Neptune commissioned by Cosimo I de' Medici in 1559. 

We walked around the centre and got sucked into the leather market. After crossing the Ponte Vecchio we went into the Boboli Gardens. How Tom Hanks managed to run through them in ‘Inferno’, I don’t know as they are built on a very steep hill.
