And the winner of this months Owner's photo competition goes to Louise Terry from Vero Beach, FL, USA
Brava Louise, with your shot you can almost smell the intense lavender perfume emanating from this picture… it is a shot that concentrates on a small detail of our "gardening project" and we think it pertinent to highlight Fulvio's philosophy not to design (landscape) a proper garden, but to let the surrounding indigenous landscape embrace the architecture or vise versa, almost in the attempt to absorb and protect one another. You have a clear perception of this idea, when you view Vagli from the distance. You don't see anything like a "spot", or a "hole" in the landscape. It's organic and you have the perception of a very natural flow of the Nature amongst the Architecture. Brava Louise…
As we increase our photo gallery, we encourage all of our owners and their guests to email: reception@borgodivagli.com with their own favourite photos of Borgo di Vagli in high resolution.
Each month one high resolution photo will be chosen and circulated electronically; from now on the winner will fittingly be presented with a copy of the renowned American photographer Leonard Freed's photo book IO AMO L'ITALIA. Freed's exhibition Io amo L'italia was held during 2012 in Milan, Rome and Turin and well supported by both critics and the general public.
Leonard Freed once referred to his relationship with Italy as a "love story". This passion reaches back a long way, beyond his career in photography, to his first interest in the medium, which began on his initial trip to Europe in 1952.
As we continue to increase our photo gallery, we encourage all of our owners and their unaccompanied guests to email reception@borgodivagli.com with their own favorite photos of Borgo di Vagli in high resolution. Each month one high resolution photo will be chosen and circulated electronically; the winner will be presented with a bottle of Brunello di Montalcino when he will be next at his 'Home in Tuscany' - Borgo di Vagli.
