Abstract Main description
(01)
|
What are my impressions of San Francisco, after a month’s stay? A city wrapped in a thick mist, in a fog obstructing the panorama.
Cold. A city, less frequently, with a clear blue sky, silhouetting the hills and buildings. Low houses, of two or three stories,
each with their own characteristics, with their own individual style, often delicate, well cared for. With interesting architectural
decorations, bay windows allowing you to glimpse objects clearly held dear by their inhabitants: pottery, flower vases. American
flags. Religious images. Near where I live, in the Mission, a largely Mexican neighborhood, I often pass an image of Christ
that changes physiognomy depending on my distance: now he seems to have an eye closed, now he seems to be looking out with
two alert eyes. The houses generally have wooden steps; blue, pink, green in various gradations, yellowish. Also purple. They
evoke European architecture, some are Victorian in style. Downtown, instead, skyscrapers characterize the business and bank
district.
