Photographer’s Note

Palazzo dei Diamanti is palace in Ferrara, northern Italy. It is one of the most famous palaces in Italy, as well one of the most influential Renaissance European architectures.

Designed by Biagio Rossetti, it was built starting from 1493 by order of Sigismondo d'Este, brother of Duke Ercole I. The most striking features is the bugnato of the exterior walls: it consist of some 8,500 white (with pink veins) marble blocks carved to represent diamonds, whence the common name.

The palace today houses the National Gallery of Art in Ferrara (Pinacoteca Nazionale) and is frequently seat of exhibitions.

Hi Ann.
Very interesting picture. The going older steam seems miniature in relation to window and the invoice of wall. Technically all ok.
I greet Robert.

Hello Anna,

What a great structure of the building. It creates incredible effect! I like a lot you have included this couple to this composition - they give life to it. Nice colours, good shot!

Bella immagine, con il pattern dei diamanti che fa da sfondo.
Il titolo e' molto azzeccato...
ciao Stefano

Ciao Anna ,
leggendo il titolo pensavo alle nozze di diamante dei due vecchietti , poi aprendo la foto ho capito che il diamnte era riferito alla facciata .
ottima composizione e perfetta realizzazione .
bel lavoro
Giorgio

Hi Anna,
Very lovely old couple hand-in-hand walking in front of the fantastic palace. How small they look compared to structure..
I like the way you composed structure of palace with walking couple.
Compliments,
Burcu

You can spot an Anna photo a mile off! All very beautifully thought out and presented. This is a fine example with the placement of the couple against this monumental building. They really look very small in comparison. Ciao Chris

Ciao Anna,

ho tentato anch'io uno scatto simile questa estate, utilizzando il bugnato della chiesa del Gesù Nuovo a Napoli. la tua idea è eccellente a partire dal titolo, straordinario!

Brava!
