Real life Romeo and Juliet in Verona Italy. When Shakespeare wrote the play Romeo and Juliet he set it in Verona. A gothic-style 1300s house with a stone balcony, is said to have inspired Shakespeare and the Capulet residence in the play. A balcony was added later after the play as an homage. This wall is erected at the entrance to the private piazza.Love notes abound. As a photographer I was drawn to this couple engaged in their own real life private passionate drama and the many loves notes represented don the wall.Such a tender real moment between two people captured against a wall of hope - the life of love and all it's joys and sorrows of which everyone dreams and/or lives
“Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo & Juliet
“My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
