Day 46 - Dangerous Beauty

Castel Sant'Angelo is not only a beauty in itself, it also has beautiful items displayed inside it. From painted walls and ceilings to furniture, as well as weapons and shields. This one caught my eye. All that detail on its surface is beautiful, but the implications of that spike are nasty. Hopefully it was only used by someone important who wanted to look pretty whilst walking along the battlements of the castle :)

    Probably the commander (for ceremonial purposes only). Too pretty (and probably flimsy?) for taking into battle (ha). ;-)
