Hi Stuart, I've not had the pleasure of going to the Falklands but was watching a documentary the other day on Island life and a couple were married in that exact Church  :)

 

Here's the link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05p6gj6

 

So, to the next picture, I'm looking for the name of the arch structure (not the Church) and the architect. I'm sure for many of the learned travellers here this should be an easy one  ;)

 

Lots of clues if required.

Are we talking about Vasari?  That church is in Castiglion Fiorentino. I'm confused. Did Vasari do the Logge del Vasari in Arezzo (the town) as well as one in Castiglion Florentino?

I don't think the Logge del Vasari has a second floor and it appears your photo was taken from on high and there is a balustrade in front of you.  I'm going to have to do some serious digging in my books!!

Yes, Vasari and it is Castiglion Fiorentino! Logge del Vasari, the original was built in 1513 by locals but it is credited to him due to a major restoration he undertook in 1560.

 

Here it is in full and over to you.

Hi. answered my own questions. Vasari did both loggias (the nicer one in my opinion in CF.  Your vantage point is way above the church so it only appeared that you were on a second level. Wow, that one wasn't easy.
