August 28, 2020: Keeping it Clean in Naples

 

The Certosa e Museo di San Martino, or Charterhouse of Naples, is an amazing collection of cloisters, halls, chapels and artwork that's easily worth a full day's visit.

But it's also an amazing collection of columns and plinths and carvings and paintings and everything else that can accumulate dirt, dust or decay. When I visited a few years ago, I was impressed with the cleaning staff, hard at work while we toured.

And sometimes, not so much a cleanup as a decorative touch. Before when we first entered the cloister garden, and then an hour or two later.

The best part of every trip is realizing that it has upset your expectations
