Primavera (new life) is the Italian word for spring. It is Maggio
(May) in this Tuscan scene, the poppies have begun to bloom and
every tree, vine and flower is full of new life. The young artichokes
have come up again on their own, among the grasses and fiori
(flowers) of spring. The gardener tends the new growth on the
vineyards, wearing the traditional leather apron and heavy boots. |
