    I’m sure some of the influence came over ‘on the boat’ with the early immigrants – especially the rococo furniture and religious shrines. In the Northeast United States, Italians tended to settle together in towns and neighborhoods (every city around here has a ‘Little Italy’ district). Our sense of style is based on what we’re exposed to, so if this is what you’re exposed to, then this often becomes your preferred style. The first thing that struck me upon moving to this part of the country was the abundance of lawn ornaments. A few years ago it seemed like every other house had a Dutch Girl/Dutch Boy pair on their lawn! Having moved here from the West Coast, it took some getting used to.
