Camaldoli, Italy

Oil on Canvas
8 x 10

Camaldoli is a small town in the Casentinese Forest, which is about 50 kilometers east of Florence.  Actually, it’s probably not accurate to call it a town:  it consists of a monastery and another building with two inns and restaurants.  Anyway, the forest is extraordinarily peaceful and quiet, and the air is sweet and clean.  One morning, I woke to birds chirping, stepped outside, and saw these red geraniums in the window of our inn.
