Votive Trees in the Cathedral in Florence

My son took this picture on our trip to Florence in 2002. Our visit was a few days after New Year's and the city was beautifully alight with holiday lights. The Cathedral was dark inside and the votive trees looked like mini Christmas trees.

I loved the votive trees in Florence! We didn't get into the Duomo last summer, but I took a beautiful photo of my daughter lighting a candle in Ognissanti.

Sandra: Cool was exactly the word my son said when he saw the picture. The votive trees were beautiful and I was surprised when I saw this photo without anyone blocking the trees.

Anne: I'm sure you treasure the photo of your daughter lighting the candle in such beautiful church.
