Milano

Milan rarely shows itself all at once. It is a city built in layers, and the only way to read it is to slow down long enough for each layer to surface. The Gothic spires of the Duomo give way to the iron and glass of the Galleria, which leads into streets where an orange tram disappears around a corner and a vintage Fiat sits unmoved in a courtyard.

The medieval stonework of the Castello Sforzesco and the curved glass towers of Porta Nuova belong to the same city, just different centuries of the same ambition. Between them, the quiet streets of the Navigli district at low traffic, the long exposure of a tram in motion, the empty morning alleys of the inner neighborhoods. Milan is not one city. It is several, running parallel
