For art history on Wednesday, we went to Piazza Nivona and talked about Bernini's "Fountain of the Four Rivers", then over to Trevi Fountain, and ended at the Spanish Steps. Because I had seen all these either wandering around or with another professor, I don't have any new photos.
On Thursday, the class went to the Borghese Gallery. We saw Bernini's "Apollo and Daphne", paintings by Caravaggio that showed when he was just starting out to when he was most famous, and a piece from Michelangelo's first Pieta (the one that is currently in St. Peter's is the second one). They didn't allow pictures, so I don't have any images to go along with the stories- sorry!
