Art Pursuits Study TourA Few Places Available

Siena

and Southern Tuscany

19 – 25 May 2008

Siena is the most majestic of Italy’s mediaeval cities. It lies at the heart of a countryside that is the very essence of Tuscany. Unique in the preservation of an intact mediaeval cityscape, Siena is the best place for a treasure hunt through narrow streets, museums and churches, to discover the magical works of Duccio, Simone Martini and the Lorenzetti. Siena is also the ideal base from which to explore the rich variety of its hinterland: hill-top fortresses, idyllic villas and gardens, glorious churches, all set in the entrancing countryside of SouthernTuscany.
