Photographer Antonio Sferlazzo, a native and spiritual son of the Maremma, who is largely responsible for the choice of locations in this book, lives in the countryside outside Florence, tending his garden. Innovative and painterly in its portrayals of landscapes, his work has appeared both in Italy and the United States in exhibitions and in major magazines, including l'Espresso, Gourmet, European Travel and Life, and GQ. In 1993 Aperture included his images in its prestigious monograph on Italian photographers, which accompanied a traveling show that debuted at the Guggenheim Foundation in Venice and was exhibited in New York at the Murray and Isabella Rayburn Foundation. Author Candice Gianetti, a longtime freelance writer and editor, fell in love with Italy unexpectedly during a brief visit cobbled onto the end of a long Greek idyll. Back then, when she hit Florence, she was immediately afflicted by a malady of romantic 19th century travelers known as Stendhal Syndrome, after the French novelist who was so affected by the glories of the city that he walked "in constant fear of falling to the ground." Even after months of work on this book, she still feels the same way.
