'...the traveller is invited to visit the city and, at the same time, to examine some old postcards that show it as it used to be...if the traveller does not wish to disappoint the inhabitants, he must praise the Postcard City and prefer it to the present one, though he must be careful to contain his regret at the changes within definite limits.'
Italo Calvino in Invisible Cities.
