Il castello di Frosini

85 days ago by Romney David Smith

A very small etching that I recently made at the Open Studio in Toronto. It's just over an inch tall. There's a certain pleasure in miniaturization. I've always wondered if its the same enjoyment we take in high-density imagery, such as Russian icons or paintings by Klimpt - the sense of too much in ...

Château de Lourmarin

101 days ago by Romney David Smith

Castles are one of those things that should be interesting. Evocative, mysterious, foreboding. Things like that. But they speckle the landscape of Europe like ants at a family picnic. Inevitably, some of them are boring. The Ch â teau de Lourmarin is one of the boring ones. Despite its location in o ...

in Arcetri

118 days ago by Romney David Smith

An imposing dwelling in Arcetri, a suburb in the hills south-east of Florence much bedecked with imposing houses. The name of this particular villa eludes me, although it's across the street from the Villa Fasola. I saw it while walking south on the via de Margherita a Montici, towards the church of ...

Chiasso Cornino

132 days ago by Romney David Smith

A tiny alleyway in Florence, just up from the Missoni boutique. Done with pencil and watercolour in a postcard-sized pad. It is places like this, where the scale is intimate but the architecture so armoured and forbidding, that remind me how lucky we are to live to live in an era that includes Pokem ...

Inside Neuschwanstein part 1

138 days ago by Sharp paw tailwagger

Perched over one of the world’s prettiest gorges, the castle is everyone’s fantasy dream. It’s located in the German state of Bavaria, close to the border with Austria. In order to get to the castle, you must pass through the Black Forest on foot. As you meander through the snake-like path in the wo ...

Saint Croix

171 days ago by Romney David Smith

Another church, this time in France. It's the ancient parish church of the town of Montrichard, a romanesque structure tucked under the towering castle erected by Foulques Nerra, the Black Falcon, a man so entertainingly evil he deserves his own novel (or two) plus a mini-series. The castle is 11th ...
