Just like in Dalí’s famous illustration “This is not a camel”… this is not Val d’Orcia.
🌟 Though the view might look quite similar, here amidst the so-called “Rolling Hills,” we are in the Crete Senesi region, in the municipality of Asciano, at Agriturismo Baccoleno.
✨This place has become one of the most iconic images of Tuscany worldwide, as much as the rural and romantic landscapes of the nearby Val d’Orcia. 🌾

🌤️ The Tuscan hills stretch out like waves of lush green, kissing the sky with their undulating grace. At the top of one of them, a solitary little tree stands proud, a silent witness to the magnificence of the surrounding landscape.
🪻 At its feet, the wild sulla flowers (Hedysarum coronarium) paint the ground with shades of purple, like strokes of pure poetry…

🍇 The vineyards of Brunello di Montalcino sprawl across rolling hills in the southern Tuscany, bathed in sunlight and caressed by gentle breezes.
Here, Sangiovese vines find their home, rooting in mineral-rich limestone soils, bestowing upon the wine a unique complexity.
Cultivated with care by generations of winemakers honoring local traditions, these vineyards yield wines renowned for their elegance, structure, and aging potential. 🍷

👉🏻 Monticchiello (Siena), with Pienza in the distance on the left. One of my fav ♥️

🌸Nestled in the picturesque Tuscan countryside, Monticchiello exudes an aura of timeless charm and rustic elegance. This medieval village, perched atop a gentle hill in the province of Siena, whispers tales of centuries past through its weathered stone walls and cobblestone streets. Steeped in history, Monticchiello boasts a rich cultural heritage, with traces of Etruscan and Roman influence mingling with its medieval origins.

🎭 But what truly sets Monticchiello apart is its unique theatrical tradition. Here, the spirit of “teatro povero” (poor theater) thrives, a movement born in the 1960s as a reaction against commercialized art. In the intimate setting of its ancient streets, locals enact their own stories, weaving together personal narratives and collective experiences in a raw and authentic form of self-expression known as “autodramma.” As dusk settles over the village, the echoes of laughter, music, and heartfelt performances resonate, creating an unforgettable tapestry of culture and community in this hidden gem of Tuscany.

🌸 Legend has it that one day, while a group of angels was soaring above the Earth carrying the gifts of grace and beauty, one of them stumbled and fell. As they got up, they shook their hands, causing some stars ✨to fall from the sky. Where these stars touched the ground, magnificent plants with flowers resembling eagles grew, much like the ones we now know as “Aquilegia.” (Columbine)

An ancient perennial, wild and incredibly cold-resistant, year after year it paints gardens and countryside pots with hues of blue, pink, purple, and yellow.

April 2021 - during the lockdown, but I had to go to the norary, so I had a permission to walk all the way to his office, that was right out Piazza del Campo…and for the first time I’ve seen the city EMPTY 🤩
❣️ Siena is (still) my favourite town in the world. I spent all my university years here around, and a piece of my heart lies under that tower ♥️

"In Tuscany it is not clear if the painters or the farmers are the ones to paint" (Indro Montanelli)
🌾 Summertime in Tuscany - especially this area - means golden and red/brown fields full of this rounded bales ("rotoballe"). It happens right after the harvest of wheat and other cereals (End of June to second half of July)
🎨 This is the color palette that people have in mind thinking about
🧑🏻‍🎨The typical color called “Terra di Siena bruciata”, in english just “Sienna” or "Burnt Sienna".
(So “Siena” is the name of the town, “Sienna”, with the double “n”, refers to the color)
