Inspiration from Rome




I´ve spent a few days in Rome not concentrating on the big turists attractions but looking at the beauty in the small things. Unfortunately I didn´t take a lot of pictures, but I thought I would show you a few that inspires me in my miniature work.

First pictures of antique stores and renovation work..




And the buildings..





..and a picture of a restaurant miniature in Piazza Navone..

    I'm glad that you liked my city. Wonderful pictures for your inspiration. In Rome, especially in the center, near Piazza Navona, you can find many of this old shops and many beautiful vintage items. Hugs

    Thank you for your comments. Yes Maria, most of the pictures are taken in the old jewish area around Campo del Fiore, and around Piazza Navona as well as in Trastevere, as you of course recognice of the pictures. These are my absolute favorite places in Rome. They carry you very quickly away from all the rush and traffic, and suddently you find yourself in a very calm place.
    Love, Susanne

    Thanks for commenting. Caterina: I didn´t buy anything, I found the toy shop on Piazza Navona, but I didn´t find anything special. So I just focused on the inspiration for my Petit Brocante shop and on the fantastic patina on buildings...I could go on forever studying that ;-)
    Love, Susanne

    I love Italy too but I have never been to Rome . I will I am sure and when I am there, I will remember all these pictures that you have posted Susanne. I may peer into the same shops and drink a cappucino at the same cafe :).
