A drawing of San Miniato al Monte in Florence, Italy, by Carl Schwarz, a senior in the School of Architecture. The building — constructed atop a pre-existing shrine to St. Miniato (249-251 A.D.), the first Christian martyr in Florence — is widely considered the city’s finest Romanesque church, notable for its rich interior mosaics and columns salvaged from ancient Roman buildings. The drawing is included in an exhibition, now on view in Givens Hall, of student work created last spring as part of the School of Architecture’s semester abroad program to Florence, which was led by Assistant Professor Zeuler Lima and Professor Carl Safe.
