Sir, Are You Looking At Me?

I love taking reflection especially on water, whenever there is a pond of water on the ground, I will bend down and try to see if the reflection of the surrounding is interesting to snap a photo.

In via Garibaldi, just after a rain, the reflection seemed interesting enough for a shot, so i did what I like to do. 

Didn't actually pay attention to the man standing there facing in my direction. Was he looking at me?

Homeless Dog

Nowadays almost every homeless has a dog, not sure where they got the dog from and how they manage to keep the dog in good condition. 
I think most of them keep the dog for company and to gain more sympathy from people to offer them some money.

Here is a dog guarding their home while the owner is away.

Sleeping Under Luxury

This is in the Galleria San Federico, where there is a Montblanc luxury goods shop.
It is also a palce where some homeless tend to spend their night sleeping there, especially in the cold season.

Chilling Corner

In every cities, there must be at least one corner where we can chill, be quiet and relax our mind and body.

This is one in Cavallerizza Reale in Turin.

Evening By The Borgo Medievale

Take a walk on the opposite of the river Po, toward Moncalieri, on the other side of the river there is the Valentino park with the Valentino Castle and the Borgo Medievale ( Medieval Village ).

The Borgo Medievale was opened in 1884 during the Italian General Exhibition. It offers a reconstruction of late medieval buildings and decorations carried out on the basis of strict philological criteria.

The inspiration of the Medieval Village came from over 40 sites and retraced the artistic and architectural features of 15th century buildings throughout Piedmont and Aosta Valley.

The village includes streets, squares, fountians, fortifications, decoration and frescoes, real houses and artisan workshops.

The Rocca or fortress is a fortified aristocratic residence whose rooms are richly decorated with furnitures, accessaries and fabrics that reflect the lifestyle of the nobility in the 15th century Piedmont.

Big Bath

I think this huge 'bath tub' belongs to the church Santa Chiara, it was under abuse of vandalism for many years and was just cleaned up recently.

Unfortunately, some people just never know how to appreciate beautiful, antique thing, as can be seen, already some idiots have vandalised it again.

Konrad Mägi At Palazzo Chiablese

Palazzo Chiablese often holds exhibition of paintings, and often the paintings are accompanied with detail of the life events that changed the painter mentally and emotionally, thus often reflected in their art works. This make the exhibition even more interesting.

Konrad Vilhelm Mägi (1 November 1878 – 15 August 1925) was an Estonian painter, primarily known for his landscape work. He was one of the most colour-sensitive Estonian painters of the first decades of the 20th century, and Mägi's works on motifs of the island of Saaremaa are the first modern Estonian nature paintings.

Mägi received his elementary art education from the drawing courses of the German Artisans' Society of Tartu (1899–1902.) At the same time, he was keenly engaged in theater, violin, and various sports.
Mägi continued his art education as an unattached student in Saint Petersburg (1903–1905), studying under Amandus Adamson. In the autumn of 1907, he went to Paris. There Mägi studied at a free academy. From 1908 to 1910, he lived in Norway. In 1912, Mägi returned to Tartu, where he worked as an art teacher.

In Åland, he created delicate plant vignettes in the style of Art Nouveau: Kahekesi (Two together; 1908; China ink drawing). In Paris, Mägi was influenced by Impressionism and Fauvism, which had a significant impact on his colours: Lilleline väli majakesega (A flower field with a little house; 1908–1909), Norra maastik männiga (A Norwegian landscape with a pine; 1910).
From 1918, the influence of Expressionism is manifest, fostered by Mägi's extreme sensitivity and emotional response to the anxious times: Pühajärv (Lake Püha); (1918–1920), Otepää maastik (Landscape of Otepää; (1918–1920). Also influenced by Expressionism are his big figure compositions Pietà (1919), Kolgata (Golgatha) (1921).

 Mägi's new artistic period, begun on a trip to Italy, brought calmer tempers: Varemed Capril (Ruins in Capri; 1922–1923). Along with nature pictures, he painted flowers and portraits. Mägi's mostly beautiful female models express the Art Nouveau ideal of beauty: Holsti (1916). In his later portraits from the 1920s, a more serious temper is expressed: Madonna (1923–1924).
