    1. The Temple of Theseus was built by Peter von Nobile in 1823 to house Antonio Canova's "Theseus".

  5. That's a beautiful building in the snow as well as when the roses are in bloom around it. It looks whiter than white! Keep warm! It's snowing here again, but it's the fine, wet, showery kind.

  6. A magnificent temple in both seasons ... but I think I prefer it in May, framed by roses.

  7. Beautiful even in the snow, with the whiteness of both the snow and temple highlighted by the sun.
