Calcio medievale?, a photo from Siena, Tuscany

Photographer's Note

A small football field belonging to the local school in the quiet corner in the very centre of Tuscan medieval walled town of San Gimignano, famous for its towers, five of which can be seen here. I was wondering if the VIP places for interschool games are on tower tops.

The title can be translated as "medieval football".

hi Alexander,

I like a lot the contrast between the nedieval towers and the symbol of current era - football field, and how well the both fit together :)) I also like the dominant blue and grey tones, I find they nicely "tie" the scene together. nice :)

best,
Kristine
