Very Troubled Child

The Island of Capri has two towns: Capri and Anacapri. Anacapri is located on the slopes of Mount Solaro at a higher elevation than Capri town. The light house, built in 1866, was the second tallest in Italy (after Genoa) and is among the most important of all those guarding over the Tyrrhenian Sea. 🇮🇹 #anacapri #verytroubledchild #savannabag #capri #puntacarena #italia

Along Anacapri’s main street lined with whitewashed houses and local shops, sits the bright red facade of a building, architecturally unique among its plain-faced traditional island neighbors for its strange and fantastic decorations. This is Casa Rossa, built by the eccentric American colonel John Clay MacKowen alongside an Aragonese tower dating from the end of the 1400’s, and representing a perfect example of the typical eclectic residence-museum which was very much in fashion at the end of the 19th century. 🇮🇹 #anacapri #verytroubledchild #savannabag #capri #italia
