A cupola is a small, most-often dome-like structure, on top of a building.  I am fortunate to sell real estate in neighborhoods with both character and architectural homes.  I appreciate all architecture - anything except that stucco box. 

When George and I were in Rome, our terrace overlooked the Piazza del Popola.  A bakery was nearby and we woke to the aroma of fresh bread and pastries.  In the evening, the terrace was a quiet refuge in the bustling city and the perfect place to enjoy a glass of prosecco. 



This cupola is on the Santa Maria di Montesanto church.
