The Tower of San Martino della Battaglia is a monumental building erected in 1878, to commemorate the Battle of San Martino, a portion of the Battle of Solferino in 1859, located near San Martino, province of Brescia, region of Lombardy, Italy.

The 74 meter high tower was constructed in the form of a Neo-Gothic turret, atop the hill of San Martino. Nearby is an Ossuary that collected the bodies of soldiers who died in the battle there between the Austrian and the Piedmontese army. Wikipedia

Today’s score from a secondhand bookshop: Views of Florence and Tuscany, by Giuseppe Zocchi (1711-77).

It features meticulous drawings of Italian landscapes, architecture, and people. Full of character—and characters.

Rock di Vote:

Giovanni di Struma is elected .

An Antipope is someone who claims the title of Pope but isn't recognized as Pope.

I've done a *lot* of historical reference and this is a flawless recreation of what an Antipope looks like.
