Underfoot II

The main road known as the Stradun, constructed entirely of marble in 1468.and reconstructed after the 1667 earthquake. The smooth surface reflects the street lights at night and becomes glass-like after rain. The city was shelled in 1991 to 1992 during the CroatianWar of Independence. This left the street pock marked as can be seen at the lower left of the photograph. A more recent patina has been added by chewing gum and a pistachio shell. Dubrovnik, Croatia, 2005
