Kevin Imper: December 2015

During the late summer 2015 Rachel and I lived for a month just behind Santa Maria Del Fiore in Florence. Our corner apartment bordered two streets and the pedestrian piazza surrounding the huge cathedral. Thus, the busy street scene with its visually rich images continually passed below our windows. Directly beneath one side of our temporary home was a news kiosk. It became a familiar backdrop for many of these photos of tourists, and of the locals, ultimately providing the title for this photo series. La Nazione is a very old and influential regional newspaper based in Florence. Many kiosks around the city share the same banner.

First - a look at our neighborhood.
