A Wanderer In Florence is a travelogue written by E. V. Lucas, an English author and essayist. The book is a detailed account of the author's visit to Florence, Italy, in the early 20th century. Lucas takes the reader on a journey through the city, exploring its art, architecture, and history. He visits famous landmarks such as the Duomo, the Uffizi Gallery, and the Palazzo Pitti, and provides insightful commentary on their significance. The book also includes descriptions of the local cuisine, customs, and people, giving the reader a comprehensive understanding of life in Florence at the time. Lucas's writing style is engaging and informative, making this book an excellent choice for anyone interested in travel writing or Italian culture.Passing along the Via Calzaioli we come on the right to a noble square building with statues in its niches--Or San Michele, which stands on the site of the chapel of San Michele in Orto. San Michele in Orto, or more probably in Horreo (meaning either in the garden or in the granary), was once part of a loggia used as a corn market, in which was preserved a picture by Ugolino da Siena representing the Virgin, and this picture had the power of working miracles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
