  4. Proviene il Nonno Bruno da New York?... E' questo dove ha scoperto questi segreti?...

    Sorry if my Italian is a bit rusty, but I get so little chance to flex that muscle anymore I thought I'd give it a try.
    I like your muted palette. It seems to hide secrets of its own.

  5. Oh! Thanks for your (not very) rusty, Italian comment. The New York-style hat is actually a mystery, because grandpa came from a small village in the Emilian Apennines, never seen NY.
