This coffee house, near the Pantheon in the heart of Rome, must be famous or their coffee must be real good as there was a constant stream of people coming in and out.  But to me, what was intriguing was a fleeting moment I happened to catch at the time I was there:  A couple hurriedly walked in this coffee house (They must be anxious to get the shop's popular espresso).  Old ladies were shooting the breeze at the corner (They must be neighbors, perhaps gossiping).  A group of students with backpacks were quite noisy (They must have just visited the Pantheon on a school field trip).  Buildings on both sides of this narrow alley had faded paint colors (They probably have been like this for who knows how long)...  Just a slice of daily life.  Nothing spectacular or noteworthy but the moment was captured in this painting.
