An inmate packs Christmas gift boxes in front of two archive photographs of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn as prisoner of the GULAG in Padua's Due Palazzi prison December 2, 2014. White-coated bakers are chopping nuts, dipping pastry into liquid chocolate and hanging freshly baked panettone Christmas cake upside down to preserve its domed shape. But when one of the all-male team steps outside to smoke, he is in a barred enclosure attached to Padua prison. Sweet smells have wafted through this building since 2005, when the local Giotto cooperative opened the “Pasticceria Giotto”, which they say is Italy's only bakery inside a jail.
