EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning landscape artwork captures the breathtaking beauty of the commune of Fiesole, nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Italy. The town, a popular suburb of Florence, is believed to have been the site of Leonardo da Vinci's early experiments with flying machines around the year 1500. The hills of Fiesole provided the perfect terrain for the renowned artist and inventor to test his flying models, fueling his lifelong fascination with aviation. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this print transport us back in time, inviting us to imagine Leonardo's groundbreaking discoveries amidst the picturesque landscape. The serene town of Fiesole, with its charming villas and winding roads, sits atop a hill overlooking the lush valley below. The landscape is dotted with olive groves, vineyards, and cypress trees, adding to the idyllic setting. This evocative image, from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, was published in the April volume of a magazine in circa 1915. The print, titled "Fiesole, Italy," was captured by the skilled lens of David Murray Smith, who masterfully documented the timeless charm of this enchanting town. This artwork is a testament to the enduring allure of Fiesole and the rich history it holds, making it a must-have addition to any art or travel collection.
