My favourite Florentine cemetery (at least so far, but I think it’s hard to beat),
Cimitero delle Porte Sante, proved to have quite a selection of lions.

These two tomb watching brothers top the league I think.
Large, majestic and dignified.  Loyal and faithful. Individual and almost, almost cuddly.
