HARLEY OR WHAT?

HARLEY DAVIDSON in SAN MARINO GIFT STORE

Lots of things happen when you are traveling on that once in a lifetime trip. Bad weather in Danmark, worse weather in Switzerland, thats OK if you can ski, but my thing is Classic MotorcyclesClick Here!and interesting people "stars" if you wish, that ride them.
This Classic MotorcycleI can only describe it as nothing else but the best complete work of ART in timber, that I have ever seen.
San Marino was my destination that day, and high upon the mountain overlooking the Mediterranean in the distance, and along what seemed medi-evil streets and alley ways. Just below a hugh castle on the highest point (getting to it) was the gift shop that dealt in novelties entirely made of timber. Ah, yes Harley or what? This piece of art had a full chain fully linked, sprockets, tank, front forks, cylinder barrel fully finned, and now get this, the handle bars and exhaust were shaped from individual pieces also. From what I understand out of this, the artist that manufactured this piece, is famous in Italy for creating timber works as big as cars with as much detail. These articles are the result of patient manual labour, made of pinewood, thought up and produced in small series by Francesco Bartolucci. My only dissapointment on that day was that the image was taken with my mobile, and it seems a little blurred but that's another story.
