Jane's adventures
This blog is about my travels. At home in New Zealand, in other parts of Oceania, North, Central and South America and in Europe.
On my first full day in Florence, my friend and I walked through the streets of Florence to see the Uffizi gallery. We saw so many amazing works of art on the way. The Uffizi gallery is truely amazing, and has beautiful works of art that span hundreds of years. These document the patrons of the time, early religeous paintings, to later works which were deeply inspired by the greeks and romans and also which started to depict noble people at the time. Many of the art works provided amazing glimpses into life in the past, as well as themes such as every day human emotions and experiences that a person can relate to hundreds of years later.
