I am in Florence for four days this week, revisiting the place once more.
This is my favourite city.
Whenever I come here I am overwhelmed by the depth, power and emotional energy of Florentine artists.
The first picture is by Giotto and shows the followers weeping for St Francis. When I saw it close up I cried too.
The one on the left is the David by Donatello, who not only shows him as a beautiful youth, but also as serene and confident; utterly sure of himself. Not only do I find him sexy, but he is heroic too.
I need to keep reminding myself that one of the best ways to develop Bodymind intelligence is to keep coming to places like this and spend an hour or two looking at what Genius has produced.
