Pic o' the Day #1316- Buried Treasures

One of my favorite things about travel is the unexpected find. Go out to see the antique Roman ruins at Stabia and stumble across a beautiful (though dilapidated) Stile Liberty house while wandering through the funky town of Castellamare di Stabia.  I don't know any details about this one; it's probably done around 1910, give or take a few years.


You could easily walk right by this one and not even notice it was there. I almost did!

Nice tile detail over the central axis entry

Interesting inversion of a Corinthian capital

Butterfly bracket support
