DUOMO


We turned a corner, after walking down a long  every-day street of storefronts, and encountered this.

This is Duomo - or at least a small part of it - located in Firenze (Florence), Italy.

We walked along side this Duomo, turned another corner, and there we saw more Duomo.

The building is mammoth sized.

I wondered what inspired the ancients  to have designed this overwhelming magnificence.

I wondered if the slaves who did all the work loved building it.

 I wondered how many people attended Mass here.

I wondered many questions.

Standing in the presence of Duomo brings out overwhelming wonder from within.
