A visit to Fantiscritti Marble Cave

During my recent visit to Massa, my wife Soledad and I were invited to visit with our daughter Raquel, the ancient marble quarry know as Fatiscritti where Michelangelo acquired the block used for La Pietà. No words could possibly convey the experience as well as a few photographs would.
