Have been looking this for about anhour and just can't work it out ...
"formerly the seat of a medieval island kingdom, this windy city, dedicated to a saintly dragonslayer, was known for its crusades. Now every summer thousands of camera-carrying visitors pass through its railway station, itself a source of surreal dreams, to see some of the year's most nightmarish (andbrilliant) visions. Name the city"
The four images are:
a. A hollywood actress type (?Theda Bara) with one of those lip-shaped sofas in front of her mouth and chin.
b. some dancers (?male) on a stage with their backs to the viewer, in front of a red and orange striped curtain/backdrop.
c. A floodlit river bank, with a castle building on the left hand side.
d. a mass of people in a ?park. Men in green tops seem to be standing on people's shoulders.
Hopeyou can help, I thought it might be Genoa, but not 100% sure.
Thanks, Chox.
