Keep meaning to post...Italian beauties

When I was in Milan I was minding my own and passed a window with these lovelies in it. Since the shop was "closed" and dark I assumed they were repros or fakes since who would leave stock in the window if they were closed? Well an Italian shopkeeper out at lunch apparently. When I went back by the shop next door had prices and I had to remind myself that 32.000 Is not $320 but $32,000 so I guess they are real. Sigh.

Oh and if you find yourself in Milan this little hidden museum, which had no other visitors had a few pieces from Napolean's coronation at the Cathedral of Milan.

Hi, I'm Italian and in Italy it's common practice leaving expensive stock in the windows when closed for lunch or even for festive closures.
I hope you had fun in my country.
