One of the most known and loved landscapes on earth, Tuscany is the heart of everything Italian with its rolling hillsides bursting with Chianti vineyards and its dusty, earthtoned architecture. Botticelli and da Vinci worked here and among this central Italian region you’ll find some of the country’s most famous landmarks: the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Michelangelo’s David sculpture; and some of Italy’s most beloved cuisine: country bread, salami, wine. Puccini composed in Tuscany and Frances Mayes immortalized it in her novel, Under the Tuscan Sun, and these photographers have managed to capture this stunningly beautiful region in pictures.
