Gallery Italy

My "Gallery Italy" page contains some magnificent photos of Italy, evocative and beautiful, these photos capture the ephemeral quality of Italy.

These images of Italy are by Karl Baer, Nicholas Baumgartner, Greg Little and others. I hope you enjoy them.

Please be a little patient with this page; because the photos are quite large it can take a little while to load. Its worth the wait! 

Rather look at photos of stunning beaches? These photos taken in Sardinia are absolutely amazing!

Umbria

These photos too, like those of Tuscany above, were taken by Jo. Umbria is one of the loveliest of all Italian regions, as lovely as Tuscany but without all the tourists.

When it comes to shopping Milan is wonderful. Have a look at our Shopping in Milan guide for some ideas.

Milan is definitely not one of my favorite cities in Italy but it does have some lovely areas in the older part of the city - this arcade is one of the loveliest.
