Guidoriccio da Fogliano at the siege of Montemassi is a fresco on the western wall of the Sala del Mappamondo in the Palazzo Pubblico in Siena. It shows Guidoriccio da Fogliano, the commander of the Sienese troops, on horseback against the background of a landscape in which the siege of Montemassi takes place.. For a long time it was assumed that the work was painted in 1330 by Simone Martini. This dating made it one of the first secular portraits and one of the first monumental landscape paintings.

8. Lago di Bolsena Bolsena
Lake Bolsena of central Italy, is a lake of volcanic and tectonic origin. Roman historic records indicate activity of the Vulsini volcano occurred as recently as 104 BC; it has been dormant since then. The two islands in the southern part of the lake were formed by underwater eruptions following the collapse that created the depression.

Mystical Maremma Hiking in Tuscany, Italy

Ancient Etruscans and Knights Templars in the Maremma, Mount Amiata and Argentario peninsula.

Discover the mystical side of Southern Tuscany. This lesser-known part of the region encompassing the Maremma, stretches between Mt. Amiata, an extinct volcano, and the Thyrrenean sea. Far from the crowds, this pristine territory is still imbued with a magical atmosphere deriving from ancient rituals and beliefs.

We start in Arcidosso, where stone carved alchemical symbols bear witness to the Knights Templars. Climbing Mt Labro, up to the Giurisdavidica tower we have breath-taking views on the Tuscan Archipelago and learn about the charismatic man and self-proclaimed messiah who founded his own cult. We continue on the footsteps of the Etruscan Civilization walking through 2500-year-old mysterious “Vie Cave”, roads carved deep into the rock adorned with astrological signs. We admire the unrivalled burial architecture of the Necropolis of Sovana, where cave-like tombs lay under monumental temples carved out of volcanic tufa rock.
