I LOVE John Eaton’s idea! Your article was particularly interesting to me as an artist–to see those modern and colorful installations in such an ancient and sacred place was stunning. Also–your recall of time spent at the top of the bell tower brought back such wonderful memories of my time spent at the top of St. Mark’s bell tower at the time all the bells started to ring. I remember smiling and laughing for about 15 minutes during the tintinnabulation and it remains one of my favorite memories of Venice. Thank you, Janet!
