Piazza della Signoria, Firenze

This is an on-site sketch of the Palazzo Vecchio on the Piazza della Signoria in Florence. The palazzo is mass-modeled in ballpoint ink, with the surrounding buildings sketched in line art. The location across the bustling piazza from the palazzo is yet too close to the tower, foreshortening it in an odd way. The sketch drew a small crowd, as the piazza was crawling with tourists. This is the last finished sketch in the sketchbook. Produced 22 May 1997 = Tayya 5826, five dozen eighth phase (Ñixaþ-Alindðal Xrga).
