art and decoration II, a photo from Lecce, Apulia

Photographer's Note

Lecce (Italian: [ˈlettʃe] (About this sound listen) or locally [ˈlɛttʃe]; Salentino: Lècce; Griko: Luppìu, Latin: Lupiae, Ancient Greek: Λουπίαι, translit. Loupíai[2]) is a historic city of 95,766 inhabitants (2015) in southern Italy, the capital of the province of Lecce, the second province in the region by population, as well as one of the most important cities of Apulia. It is the main city of the Salentine Peninsula, a sub-peninsula at the heel of the Italian Peninsula and is over 2,000 years old.

Because of the rich Baroque architectural monuments found in the city, Lecce is commonly nicknamed "The Florence of the South".[3] The city also has a long traditional affinity with Greek culture going back to its foundation; the Messapii who founded the city are said to have been Cretans in Greek records.[4] To this day, in the Grecìa Salentina, a group of towns not far from Lecce, the griko language is still spoken.

Hi Costantino
At glance this indoor looks busy and well focus, the level of detail is adequate with some good colours and contrast. I feel more shadow and shade would be beneficial. Excellent shot, Congrats
Best regards

There is a lot to see in the photo, which surrounds the entrance to the shop. A good photo with appealing colours and a nice balance between the light and dark parts. Well done.

Hello Costantino,

A delightful photograph with lots to see, examine and admire from paintings, drawings and various trinkets. Is this a shop selling locally produced goods for tourists?

A well composed shot with good light and colours and excellent detail and a fascinating note about Lecce.

Excellent!

Kind Regards,

John.

Hello Constantino, when I looked at the thumbnail, I initially thought that this was part of a room.
But now I see that it is the entrance to a shop!
What a strange assortment of objects.
It certainly makes for an interesting picture.
Now did you investigate further, and go inside?
Regards Jean.

worldcitizen (16226) 2018-10-07 16:00

Hello Costantino,
This looks like a charming shop, and possibly a nice place to pick up a souvenir. There are many different types of items. They are all interesting, but I definitely wouldn't purchase the poster with the spiders on it. :-)

holmertz (103520) 2018-10-08 1:30

Hello Costantino,
A very nice view from an Italian street. The shop seems to sell all kinds of things, spreading them in the street as much as inside. There are lots of interesting details to discover in this nicely chaotic view.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi Costantino

A superb capture of this homely looking entrance in Lecce with its many decorations such as handbags and spiders. Alas, I missed it. And I spent several days in Lecce too. Good sharpness and framing. Tfs!

Ciao Costantino
non ho visto questo caratteristico negozio durante la mia visita a Lecce, ma ho visto la bellezza di questa città.
Curioso insieme di oggetti, pitture e pelletterie, hai fatto bene a fare la foto.
Saluti

Geia sou Costantino The basement of this souvenir boutique seems to be full of ancient treasures piled up in a small room... I would like a visit down there for the feeling and scents of years gone by! Nice merchandise too on the sidewalk that constitutes a nostalgic pleasure for the eyes. Thanks for showing this lovely view on ancient objects. Se xereto

Hello Costantino,
This is a very special display of art and other knick-knacks. Fancifully displayed to invite the visitor to go inside in the dark basement with even more interesting merchandise.
Excellent photographed.
Have a nice day, groet Rob

serp2000 (47063) 2018-10-16 12:26

Hi, Costantino!
First of all I really love the spirit of the old streets and the small corners in the ancient towns. Here is a local business, everything for sale, but just to stay here and to take a photo is enough for real traveller.
Best regards,
Serghei

ikeharel (114435) 2018-10-18 21:35

Kalimera Costantino,
