Elysian fields
Podere Terrapille is one of the many large farmhouses that dot the Tuscan countryside, particularly in the UNESCO-listed Val d'Orcia region. Located at the foot of the Renaissance town of Pienza, it is especially known for its appearance in the film Gladiator, where it serves as the protagonist's countryside home. A famous scene showcases it at sunset, with Maximus walking through wheat fields. It was primarily the gently rolling hills surrounding it that drew me in. Conditions were excellent that morning, with soft morning light and a light mist drifting through the valleys.
