Villa del Balbianello

Took this image while passing by the villa on the batiscafo from Como to Varenna. When passing it by you can not escape at least one person on the ferry mentioning that it’s the villa where the marriage scene at the last Star Wars movie was filmed.

Made little progress on the family portrait but hope to be putting some finishing touches on it next week. Hope to be opening up some bits of the other mega large (100×160 cm) painting.
