In Southern Tuscany below the castle village of Torre Alfina is the mystical and enchanting woods of the Sasseto Forest. In Italy it is known as the Bosco Monumental Sasseto. What makes these woods so unique is the moss covered boulders and twisting trees which create an enchanting atmosphere like something out of a fairy tale. The woods are also know as Snow White's Woods because it feels like you are walking through a fairy tale.

Orvieto, Umbria, Italy, Europe
Orvieto is a city and comune in Province of Terni, southwestern Umbria, Italy situated on the flat summit of a large butte of volcanic tuff. The site of the city is among the most dramatic in Europe, rising above the almost-vertical faces of tuff cliffs that are completed by defensive walls built of the same stone called Tufa. The territory of Orvieto was under papal control long before it was officially added to the Papal States (various dates are quoted); it remained a papal possession until 1860, when it was annexed to unified Italy. On November 15, 1290, Pope Nicholas IV laid the cornerstone for the present building and dedicated it to the Assumption of the Virgin, a feast for which the city had a long history of special devotion. The design has often been attributed to Arnolfo di Cambio, but the prevailing modern opinion is that the master mason was an obscure monk named Fra' Bevignate from Perugia. The church is striped in white travertine and greenish-black basalt in narrow bands, similar in many ways to the cathedral of Siena and other central Italian cathedrals of that era. In the following decade, cathedral authorities called Sienese architect and sculptor Lorenzo Maitani to stabilize the building and design a façade. He enlarged the choir and planned a transept with two chapels (c. 1308-1330), spaces that were not finished until long after his death. The façade (illustration at right) is particularly striking and includes some remarkable sculpture by Lorenzo Maitani (14th century). Inside the cathedral, the Chapel of San Brizio is frescoed by Fra Angelico and with Luca Signorelli's masterpiece, his Last Judgment (1449-51). On the left side of this chapel are the tombs of the Gualterio family. The Corporal of Bolsena, on view in the Duomo, dates from a eucharistic miracle in Bolsena in 1263, when a consecrated host began to bleed onto a corporal, the small cloth upon which the host and chalice rest during the canon of the Mass. The city of Orvieto has long kept the secret of its labyrinth of caves and tunnels that lie beneath the surface. Dug deep into the tuff, a volcanic rock, these secret hidden tunnels are only now open to view through guided tours. Their spectacular nature has also yielded many historical and archeological finds. Saint Anselm College in New Hampshire, the United States, has set up a program, where each summer, students travel to Italy to work at the college's archaeology site located at the Coriglia excavation site, just outside of town. The underground city boasts tunnels, galleries, wells, stairs, quarries, cellars, unexpected passageways, cisterns, superimposed rooms with numerous small square niches, detailing its creation over the centuries. Many of the homes of noble families were equipped with a means of escape from the elevated city during times of siege through secret escape tunnels carved from the soft rock. The tunnels would lead from the city palazzo to emerge at a safe exit point some distance away from city walls. Work on the construction of the Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo began in the 13th century on an area that had been occupied since 1157 by the papal palace built under the reign of Pope Hadrian IV. The original Palazzo del Capitano was a single ground-floor loggia that was used as a market place or for meetings, from which the magistrate would speak to the citizens. This was where the surrounding lords or representatives of vanquished cities came to pay their allegiance to Orvieto. The structure was enlarged within ten years of its original construction and, in 1315, the bell tower was added and in the subsequent year a great bell was hung there. The upper part of the structure was covered in 1472 and the large hall divided into two rooms, one large and the other small. The larger of the two occupied an area that corresponds approximately to the room known today as the Sala dei Quattrocento. Subsequently, the building functioned as a residence for the Capitano del Popolo, the Podestà and the Signori Sette. From 1596 one of the lower-section rooms housed the Studium, which had been re-instituted a few years earlier by Lorenzo Magalotti. Students of law, theology and logic came here to study twice a day, each time the bell of Palazzo del Popolo rang, until 1651. Few records of this ancient university appear after this date. Some sources indicate that it dates back to 1013 and had connections with names such as the Benedictine monks Graziano and Gozio of Orvieto. In Piazza Cahen stands the Fortezza dell'Albornoz. It was built by order of the Spanish Cardinal Albornoz under orders from Pope Innocent VI and designed by condottiero and military engineer Ugolino di Montemarte.

Villa Lante - Bagnaia - Viterbo - Italy

Villa Lante Bagnaia, il Casino del card. Gambara (manortiz)
card .Giovanni Francesco Gambara (Brescia, 1533 – Roma, 1587)
Le due palazzine presentano all'interno un interessante ciclo di affreschi. In quella di destra ( edificata al tempo del cardinale Gambara nel 1566) i dipinti manieristici della Scuola degli Zuccari e di Antonio Tempesta si distendono su pareti e soffitti con storie mitologiche e religiose, scene di caccia e paesaggi, tra cariatidi e grottesche.
Le decorazioni della loggia (in cui si rileva, come in altri ambienti, la spiccata personalità di Raffaellino da Reggio) raffigurano nella volta, a quattro campate, scene mitologiche, paesaggi con rovine ed altri soggetti; sulle pareti, divise in ampi riquadri da cariatidi monocrome e sovrastate da stemmi cardinalizi, sono raffigurate da sinistra la villa d' Este di Tivoli, la villa Farnese di Caprarola, quella di Capodimonte e la villa Lante di Bagnaia nel suo aspetto originario
THE CONSTRUCTIONS TO THE INSIDE OF VILLA LANTE: In the plan the construction of the two villas was previewed, but only one was made to construct, in 1566, from card. the Gambara. To the inner conserve wonderful ceilings to boxes, putty and fresh valuable, some representing Villa D' Este, the Palace Farnese of Caprarola, the Palace of Capodimonte and Villa Lante as it was to the origin. The other villa, call Montalto Mansion, for the name of the cardinal who made it to construct, came finished in 1590 with frescoes of several authors and an important decorated ceiling to boxes.
Young cardinal Francisco Gambara, descendant from one noble family born in brescia, thanks to the protection of the Farnese (the mother was the vedova of Ranuccio Farnese), obtained the title it of Bishop of Bagnaia in 1566 but taken single possession in 1568 and immediately planned the realization of its Lante Villa to Bagnaia demanding to the Farnese the service of their Vignola architect. In the 1573 cardinal it already could reside to you but the jobs continued until 1578 (as it on purpose remembers the date on a fregio of the casino said Gambara Mansion), given of the visit of Gregorio XIII. The architecture of the cottages constructed symmetrically on the clivio to the end of a terraces to the inside of Villa Lante in Bagnaia turns out more elegant and simple much regarding coeve the villa of Este and palace Farnese in Caprarola and it is inspired of the bramantesco model of the Lookout from which Vignola it drew evidently directed inspiration resuming from the previous experience of Caprarola some elements of the Casino of the Barco but leaving much more space the garden that to Bagnaia carries out the protagonist role. The inner decoration came finished in time for the visit of Gregorio XIII in 1578, the program and the direction of the jobs is attributed to Raffaellino from Reggio, already present in the palace Farnese of Caprarola.
This dependency of cardinal the Gambara from the very more powerful Farnese family is emphasized from all the realization of its residence of Bagnaia and returns expressed on the walls of the loggia of the Association of Bologna where is represents landscapes to you of Caprarola with the Farnese palace and the villa of the Barco with to one seen of villa of Este and Lante Villa to Bagnaia.
Thematically tied to this celebration of the families Farnese, Este and Gambara are also the paintings of the time that represent the birth of four constellations second the astronomical conviction of Igino and in relation to the three over name families: over the view of Villa of Este Ercole and the dragone in the garden of the Esperidi it represents the birth of the constellation of the snake; over Farnese palace to Caprarola Orione and the scorpion constellation is both legacies to one; over the Barco Giove it defeats the giants accompanied from the Aquila (an enterprise of the Farnese was constituted from the lightning with which Giove murdered the Giants); finally over Villa Lante Ercole the Idra and with it a granchio reached in aid of the monster (in reference kills the constellation of the cancer but also to the gambero, symbol of the cardinal).
In with therefore the inner decoration of the loggia of Bagnaia it entire seems to be imprinted to the previous models of the drawing-room of Villa of Este and of it knows it of Ercole to Caprarola, but the outside differs for a greater order spaces them that ago hinge on an axis centre emphasized them from one to ollow it self from which comes down the water, from a of marble table and finally from Fountains with great bathtub mails to the centre of the first devised terraced and according to ancient models as small lake rising with island centre them.
