Description
  • Italiano: Dettaglio del portale manieristico in via Guastalla a Milano. Doveva trattarsi in origine del riquadro di una fontana o di un ninfeo, come suggeriscono le allegorie acquatiche e una scritta latina Sotto il putto in questa foto appare invece il monito "Ut vivas vigila" ("Sii cauto, se vuoi vivere"). Oggi il portale funge da ingresso a un (brutto) condominio moderno. Foto di Giovanni Dall'Orto, 5-5-2007.
  • English: Detail from the manneristic portal in via Guastalla in Milan, (Italy). Very likely it originally served as a frame for a fountain or a nymphaeum, as suggested by the aquatic allegories and the Latin inscription under one putto ("Aqua vivimus", "Water is Life"). The inscription under this putto admonishes "Ut vivas vigila" ("Be vigilant if you want to stay alive"). Now the frame serves as the entrance to a (rather ugly) modern building. Picture by Giovanni Dall'Orto May 5 2007.
