I now pronounce you man and painting


Tomasz Urynowicz, 37, 0f Nowa Huta, Poland fell in love with an image of a girl painted 56 years ago. For ten years he attempted to track her down but had no success. He is now hoping to find a priest who will marry him to the painting.
My advice? The relationship seems to be working out so far, don't mess with it.

Thanks Bruce.

Monster Park

In the middle of the 16th century, Prince Vicino Orsini created, in his estate at Bomarzo, a labyrinth of symbols, Il Parco dei Mostri di Bomarzo.

He populated the sacred wood with monsters and tortoises, obelisks, nymphs and giant statues. After Vicino Orsini's death nobody cared any longer for this jewel of mannerist art. Now, after centuries of oblivion it has been saved and restored.
