Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Girl´s Winter in India Prosper Merimée, writing of the transition from Rome to Naples, said: "It is comedy succeeding tragedy," - which is certainly a vivid comparison. However, at night one city looks very much like another. Reaching Naples about seven in the evening, we were driven through the ruts and holes of the Neapolitan streets by a most circuitous route to the Hotel Grande Bretagne, opposite a beautiful park, that Watteau might have painted as a background for his stately ladies. Leaving the Roman Campagna, the railroad journey was through a succession of blue Albanian mountains, their rugged peaks softened by filmy clouds, while the greenest of grasses and climbing roses bordered the hillsides, until now we are in Naples, more dear and dirty than poet or realist ever described.
