Italy, North AfricaCommentary

When we arrived at our hotel in Rome at the beginning of the trip to
Italy my son and I made last February, we were greeted by young North Africans selling umbrellas, something that became a familiar sight during our visit.

I asked one of them if I could take his picture. He complied readily.
So here is the face of one of the young people who have Europe convulsed at the moment.

An Umbrella Vendor
