Florence, Italy: Panorama of the city, medium format. Large image

	The name of the city comes from the Roman colony of Florentia, founded in 59 BC.
	Florence was a small regional capital until 1865, when it was proclaimed the capital of Italy. Finding buildings for the Court, Ministries and offices of the Kingdom of Italy was not a problem in a city with a palace at every street corner. Housing 20,000 government bureaucrats created many problems. The domino effect resulted in the kicking of the lower classes out of their dwellings. The center of the town was taken over by slums, the middle classes moved to the suburbs.
	Here is a smaller format panorama of the city, complete with the river Arno, Ponte Vecchio and many of its famous monuments.

The posters and prints you order here are NOT the mass-produced, flimsy paper "dime-a-dozen" variety: every panoramic poster and print is printed "on demand" just for you, on photographic paper. This ensures extreme high quality and a truly "limited" distribution.

You may chose GLOSSY or MATTE surface paper. If you do not specify otherwise, your order will be processed on GLOSSY paper.

Escape: decorate your office or cubicle with a panoramic poster (or print) of a dream place.

Gift idea for your sweetheart (or treat yourself...): A unique panoramic poster!

The Panoramic Posters and Panoramic Prints make exceptional gifts. Please order well in advance of major Holidays.

These posters are custom printed professionally and look absolutely stunning. Exactly the same image presented on the Web site is printed (minus the copyright overlay). Panoramic pictures present a view that is impossible to capture with "normal" cameras. The very large panoramas present a view that is larger than the human normal field of view. Because of technical reasons (due to panoramic processing and exceptionally large field of view), when examined under magnification, certain elements may appear distorted or imperfect. Any such imperfections are not visible under normal viewing and will not interfere with the enjoinment of the beautiful panorama.
