There is a town which possesses landscapes that are recognized everywhere.That town is San Quirico d’Orcia. ¶ When one is traveling in foreign lands, walking through the streets of cities worldwide, looking through the pages of many a travel magazine or admiring the posters adorning walls in places near and far, there may very well be a scene of a Tuscan landscape to visualize and admire. Often this landscape will come directly from here in or around San Quirico d’Orcia. ¶ This is why we say «THIS IS THE ORIGINAL». ¶ These are landscapes created by humans for other humans and defined as worldwide patrimonies of humanity by UNESCO. They are landscapes of a magical place, the Val d’Orcia, in which San Quirico is, according to the historian Franco Cardini (an expert on this part of Italy), the true capital. This is not only because of its location at the center of the valley, but above all for its more than one thousand years of history related to the Via Francigena. ¶ Therefore, the events that we present here are one with our landscapes, and relate the beauty, the work, the flavour and the sentiments of our land. ¶ They are landscapes of art, music, taste and of the soul and are to be shared by all of humanity! ¶ Living here also means having a special relationship with nature and art. It really is valid in this environment what Piero Calamandrei wrote about Tuscany. «…for the fate of a painting or a statue or a dome you suffer as much as for the fate of a close relative or a very dear friend.» It is with this spirit that here we take care of our artistic heritage. A place where well- being reigns supreme, where men’s rhythms still seem to be those of time ago. The thermal waters in Bagno Vignoni where Saint Catherine of Siena and Lorenzo de’ Medici bathed still flow in the square made of water and restore the body and soul. ¶ u.s.
