Today, December 12, 2018 Angelina and I went to the Uffizi Gallery to see masterpieces of Art. Of all the art I viewed today, Botticelli´s ¨The Birth of Venus¨ has always been my favorite painting. Today I chose a new favorite, ¨Spring¨ by Botticelli, it is so beautiful and now that Winter is here, Spring is just around the corner. I love the plants and the three women dancing (me and my sisters), it is joyous and full of life. On our way to the gallery we saw a shop with a gorgeous dress in peach satin that caught our eyes. We had a view of the Piazza S. Marco, Ponte Vecchio, and another bridge along the River Arno. Florence is an easy city to walk in and so full of memorable sights (and food). It was a fantastic day of exploring.-Mona
The Uffizi Gallery was the perfect place to see on a really chilly day! We got to see many famous works of art! I loved seeing all the different paintings. My favorite was the Spring painting with all of the beautiful ladies in the forest and pretty flowers. I also loved the Madonna with the child in a pretty pink dress. The medusa was quite weird but cool that it was painted on a shield. I thought that the Perseus Freeing Andromeda painting was a really unique depiction of a monster. These pictures of us at the end were at a pizza restaurant, we also spotted pretty cakes as we were walking back to our apartment. They are super cute! -Angelina
