My Photos: Italy -- Sicily -- Palermo -- Quattro Canti

Quattro Canti Found at the intersection of  Via Vittorio Emanuele and Via Maqueda, Quattro Canti is a small piazza shaped by the concave facades of the four corner buildings, which all date to the 1600s. Each of the four buildings is decorated with a fountain, and 3 tiers of statues depicting the 4 seasons, patron saints of the 4 Palermo neighborhoods, and Spanish  kings.     Albergheria  Spring Charles V Christina of Bolsena Seralcadio  Summer Philip II Santa Ninfa          La Loggia Autumn Philip IV Olivia di Palermo  Kals Winter Philip III Sant'Agata     All photos are copyright protected property of  Brenda Pokorny unless otherwise noted.
