Don't you love italian windows?
Here I am in our room at Diana's:

I love the shutters!

Here is an original window, that is in Diana's new kitchen:

I started this on Diana's terrace, and finished it when we got home.

We also had green shutters in Varenna, so here is what our lake view was like:

Maybe I'll paint this Cernobbio window next.

Yes - I love doors and windows too. And you have captured some lovely ones.
Wanted to thank you, too, for an absolutely magnificent set of photos of the garden at Lake Como - they are worthy of a coffee table book! When I viewed them I was ready to hop on the next plane east, ready to plop down on one of those benches and spend hours just enjoying the sensual beauty of the area.
Thanks, Palma.
