Liz Evans has been in Florence for just a few weeks, but she’s made the most of them by traveling throughout Italy. Check out her newest posts on admiring mosaic art in the Duomo’s Baptistry, a trip to Assisi and Ravenna, and learning new Italian phrases.

On experiencing art in Florence:
I do, however, love seeing the artwork that I’m learning about in my art history class.  I think in the US we get used to seeing these great works in books and on the computer, but here, you walk around the block and oh, there’s the Duomo.
