Photographer’s Note

An invisible line forms the confines of the Montefeltro, crossroads between Tuscany, Umbria and Romagna, an imaginary line that binds together an extraordinary landscape and a common history at the centre of which is man and which protects its beauty as if in a treasure chest.
This line dissolves in a thousand directions among nature, facts and the legends of the golden age of Italian civilisation. It darts through the gentle hills, the ancient roman roads and the rocky passes in which fortresses, castles and ducal palaces are perched, it spreads in the parallel valleys of the short rivers that feed stretches of wild woods and the parish churches and monasteries in their peaceful bliss.
Here, it is as if time is suspended between the past and present, and each destination that the surprising turns of these countless routes hide is both close and yet distant.
Here, destiny has chosen to be generous with her guests; a generosity known to each hamlet as it watches over and celebrates its patrimony of tradition, art and culture, and to each inhabitant, with deep roots tied to centuries of history conserved and cultivated in folklore, museums, handcrafts and in the gastronomic and wine-making arts.
Here the mysterious treasure of beauty and quiet unfolds.
