| part of the show of paintings by artists from the Czech Republic |
I would like to take you with me to
this beautiful show in an amazing setting that exists only in Tuscany: the Corsini Villa, Impruneta, on the first day of timid sunshine after days of rain.

After entering the gates of the Villa, a long road took us down to the studio where the show was hung.

paintings by artists from Prachatice, Czech Republic, in oil, tempera, acrylic and watercolor
Impruneta is the area famous for clay production; pots, bricks, etc., but also terracotta sculpture. This "pot-sculpture" marked a tiny staircase which led us up to a formal boxhedge garden where the sculpture by Italian artists was placed.

While waiting for the cerimonies to begin, I explored the gardens enjoying the unexpected sun.
