Sculpture of man carrying a wine jug at St Mark’s Basilica, in St Mark’s Square, Venice. The Basilica was rebuilt in 978, after having been burnt down. I think what attracted me to this sculpture is the detail that still remains despite its antiquity.

El Palacio de Bellas Artes is located in the heart of Mexico City. It was built in 1910 to commemorate the centennial of the Mexican Revolution of Independence. It is worth noting that its interior is as architecturally beautiful as the exterior. “Bellas Artes” also called the “art cathedral of Mexico”, is home to the Ballet Folklorico de Mexico.
