The beauty of Valerio Minato's photography - a thread 🧵

1. Cathedral, Mountain, Moon Image
2. Backstage of a masterpiece

Minato won NASA's "Astronomy Picture of the Day" contest with this photo.

3. Mole Antonelliana, Turin, Italy

The term "mole" in Italian refers to a building of monumental proportions. This architectural wonder (built between 1863 and 1889) bears the name of its designer, Alessandro Antonelli. Image

The power of street art - a thread 🧵

1. Patrick Commecy Image
French artist Patrick Commecy breathes life into boring urban buildings, turning them into picturesque murals.

"When you paint a wall, you are creating something for the public. Anyone can see it: young, old, rich, poor, people of all creeds, nationalities and political views." Image
"For tourists, these walls act as giant ID cards for the place they are visiting.

If you think about it, painting on walls is the oldest art form known to humankind. It is here to stay." Image

Today is the birthday (and death day) of William Shakespeare. This short thread serves as a reflection on the passage of time, love, beauty, mortality and the meaning of life 🧵

1. Dame Judi Dench, Sonnet 29
2. Sir Laurence Olivier, Sonnet 116

"Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved."
3. Peter O'Toole, Sonnet 18

"So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee."
