In the background is the Rocca Nuova, or New Fortress, built by Lorenzo the Magnificent in 1475. It sits at the highest point in Volterra, a town with a population of 11,000 which dates back to Etruscan and Roman times.
Walking down a street in Volterra, Italy, I chanced upon this doorway. I loved the color of the aged stucco and the decorative details. Texture by Shadowhouse Creations.
