Retro Photography of Bologna in 1930. In the nineteenth century Gozzadini reports that there were more than 180 towers, unfortunately today they only count 20. In this picture Bologna’ssymbols stand out among the roofs of: the Asinelli and Garisenda. Famous for their sloping enough to be mentioned in Dante's Divine Comedy.

Qual pare a riguardar la Garisenda

sotto 'l chinato, quando un nuvol vada

sovr'essa sì, che ella incontro penda;

tal parve Anteo a me che stava a bada

di vederlo chinare ...

(Dante AlighieriDivina Commedia, Inferno, XXXI, 136-140)

Non mi poriano già mai fare ammenda

del lor gran fallo gli occhi miei, sed elli

non s'accecasser, poi la Garisenda

torre miraro cò risguardi belli,

e non conobber quella (mal lor prenda)

ch'è la maggior de la qual si favelli...

(Dante Alighieri, Rime, VIII)
