Colorful Man

He is one of those 'personaggio' of Turin, a prominent character that can be seen around town.
His tattoos and his colorful outfit make him stand out from the crowd and he is pretty cool with it, even when people look at him in a certain way. I think he is cool ....


His name is Angelo Piovano. He should be about 77 years old by now and he started his first attoo at the age of 56.
