the Four Horses in San Marco Basilica

This is for you Isy - told you I'd taken LOTS!! They are so beautiful.



The interior of the basilica is AWESOME - using the true meaning of the word - it just takes your breath away. I stood there totally entranced, the sheer beauty and majesty!



These horses stood in front ot the basilica until 1977 until it was realised they were too valuable to be ouside in all weathers so they were brought inside where they now stand under flood lights in all their glory.
