'Designed and built between 1902 and 1908, based on the model of noble houses on the Island of Delos (2nd century BC.), Villa Kérylos is not a simple reproduction but a reinvention of ancient Greece.'

Today in Toledo
Just read that Toledo was the home of El Greco.
Ten years ago, when I met Roberto in Brussels, I went to the El Greco exhibition in Brussels.
Had the space to myself.
Never experienced anything like it before or since
First understanding of the power of painting.
Deeply moving.
