A new romantic night view of Florence…
This wallpaper offers an unusual image of the city from the Carraia’s bridge, with the Arno in the shade and the church of San Frediano in Cestello. Legend tells that the holy native of Lucca, which the monastery is dedicated, in this place would miraculously furrowed the Arno waters and would have diverted it avoiding a flood… fascinanting history!
Lights along the the river give us a romantic view of Florence… ideal as a new wallpaper!
