🔼 Why not take a rest on these books? But not when they’re wet 🔽 The niche is an old boot scrapper, at one time every house had one. As to the ‘sculpture’ nestled there, that makes me think of the Roman lares. Maybe its the guardian of the house?

Taking photos through shop windows, not something that always works 🔼 A Greek athlete poses in front of a painting of sunrise over a mountain-scape in an antique shop 🔽 A shop of glitter and jangles
