Beppo.
Beppo. More than the rest one person seemed to stare. / With pertinacity that's rather rare. / It was a Turk the color of Mahogany.

A scene from Lord Byron's 'Beppo: A Venetian Story'. A Venetian lady, Laura, off to attend the Venetian Carnival with her lover, is stalked by her long-lost husband, who had been captured by Barbary pirates. Revealing himself, Beppo accepts his wife's actions and befriends the lover. Byron's poem argues that the English attitude to adultery is hypocritical compared to the custom of the 'Cavalier Servente; in Italy.

The Campo Santo, also known as Camposanto Monumentale (monumental cemetery) or Camposanto Vecchio (old cemetery), is a historical edifice at the northern edge of the Cathedral Square in Pisa, Italy. 'Campo Santo' can be literally translated as 'holy field', because it is said to have been built around a shipload of sacred soil from Golgotha, brought back to Pisa from the Fourth Crusade by the archbishop of Pisa in the 12th century. This view shows some construction taking place on the main dome, to the left, with a number of figures, and a horse drawn cart, on the path in the foreground.
