The Tuscany region
Tuscany is very well known among tourists:the typical Tuscan landscape most famous in the world is that of plains and hills where more than in any other part the harmony unites man with nature. Here orderly cultivations of vines and olives alternate, marked by rows of cypresses and by farm houses which give the visitor a sense of balance and elegant beauty.
Regarding the Architecture we know the beginning from Etruscans but Tuscany has also numerous testimonies of Medieval castles and very ancient churches.The really urban architecture in Toscana began in the 1200s with the construction of the tower-houses, more like fortresses than private residences.Later with the economic prosperity of the region, taste changed and we had Nobles' houses, stone buildings became more elegant and extended horizontally. In the 1400s there was also the necessity to construct more solid housing for the poorer people to prevent the frequent fires which destroyed the wooden shanties. At this point the 1500s saw an ideal architectural organisation for the urban setting.
At the end of this century new trends appeared, among which was the balcony. The 1600s brought the Baroque opulence, best expressed in religious architecture. The end of the 1700 coincided with the construction of elegant bourgeois detached houses on the outskirts of the cities The most radical urban transformation, especially in Firenze, was in the 1800s, when old houses were knocked down to make way for imposing buildings worthy of the new born Capital of Italy. Lastly the 1900s opened with the decorative “art nouveau”, of which we have notable examples of buildings in Versilia and Montecatini. After the”great war” there was a rapid reconstruction of the cities, simplifying the architecture of the buildings, thereby officially affirming the social function of the architect, less artist, more technician.
Florence and Siena surroundings may be really considered a Valley of Treasures of Art and History. There is a number of small town museums and monuments a churches often called “Pievi” that can offer you extraordinary surprises.And it may be a double gift: together with the Arts, you will be able to explore one the most enchanted countrysides of the world. (if you’re not in hurry, you’ll also find out that little country restaurants and taverns may be more convenient than the town centre ones and, most of all, maybe more genuine).
