The photograph is taken in Monte Amiata Housing, a residential complex in Milan, Italy, designed by architects Carlo Aymonino and Aldo Rossi in the late 1960s. The project is well known in the international architecture community, and regarded as one of those that better represent Aymonino's vision of the city as a turbulent, intricate, and varied texture, a paradigm that is known as "fragmentism". The complexity of the skyline of this complex is enriched by a number of passages, decks, elevators, balconies, terraces and bridges connecting the buildings with each other and providing for a great variety of pedestrian walking paths. The photograph is taken in a walking covered path, showing the shadows of trees and bushes from the green park of the complex over the pillars.
