Home!

[blamebrampton]

With only minimally bleeding nose (some of the capillaries are a wee bit fragile due to repeated breaking and do not cope well with sneezing when very dry. No, anthimaeria , I am really not hiding a secret history as a stuntwoman ;-)) I have made it home, to a happy J and two conflicted kitties. They keep running up to me for pats, then remembering they are meant to be cranky with me and jumping off the bed in crankiness.

The house is a tiny bit of a cat-covered disaster, which I take to mean that J has spent the whole time I have been away pining. This is right and proper.

Some of you may be wondering what the Florence meetup girls look like. As a guide, here we are represented by the Great Artists and Photographers. Here's raitala :

I love this idea, but I guess you had to be there, as I'm not sure what to infer from it all...
I'd love to know the names of the paintings though, as I have neglected my art history studies of late.
Glad it was a good trip, overall, and if you feel like posting your favorite costumetextilethingies (isn't that partly why you went?) or sights, I will devour with vicarious pleasure!

Well, I wasn't going to post photos of actual people, so I went for the next best option. We all look something like our analogues! The Ingrid one is Market Woman with Fruits, Vegetable and Poultry by Joachim Beauckelaer, Vaysh is a study by Sir Edward Burne-Jones, Shiv is Rubens's Young Woman in a Fur Wrap (after Titian), and I'm Raphael's La Donna Velata, of the two photos, Rai is an unknown 1920s starlet and anthimaeria is a photo of Gladys Cooper from the 1910s.
