When in Rome last year, I stumbled upon these beautiful postcards by Giancarlo Gasponi.
The first cat poses near the Trevi Fountain. If you saw the movie La Dolce Vita, you'll probably remember the scene in which Anita Ekberg strolls into the Trevi Fountain as Marcello Mastroianni pursues her. It's one of the most famous scenes in film history.
The cat in the second picture makes itself at home in front of the Colosseum. Apparently, the Colosseum is home to about 200 cats, all of which are being fed and pampered daily. However, I didn't see a single feline when I was there.
The building behind the third cat is the tomb of the Roman Emperor Hadrian: St. Angel's Castle, also known as Castel Sant'Angelo or Castle of the Holy Angel.
Have you ever been to Rome? What are your favorite places here?

ReplyDeleteWhat fun photos!
ReplyDeleteI'm always glad when your blog shows up in my RSS reader! It's funny that you're showing Rome today; my sister has taken some days off to visit this city. I've never been there, but I liked other Italian cities a lot.
ReplyDeleteThey are very photogenic !!
ReplyDeleteI love to see cats in other countries. I have photographed them at Lake Como, Italy. Strasbourg, France, Florence, Italy.
ReplyDeleteI love how they sit and watch us long before we see them!
We saw a feral cat at the Colosseum in Rome. He was posing for pictures on the stump of an ancient column. He was the highlight of my visit there!

ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous photos and the cats are perfect "accents" to the lovely sights in Rome. I was last there in 1990 and don't remember seeing one cat in the Colisseum but I'm glad the ones that are there are being pampered! We loved everything about Rome....the people, the food, the incredible "history" around every corner.....AND the beautiful weather in September!
