Description
This watercolour "Tuscan Olive Grove" is part of a series of work inspired by the beautiful Italian landscape in the Tuscan region, it was painted on a visit to a hilltop medieval village of Buggiana.
The landscape is characterised by Olive groves with beautiful gnarled tree trunks and shimmering grey/green leaves.
Tuscany is named after its pre-Roman inhabitants, the Etruscans. It was ruled by Rome for many centuries. In the Middle Ages, it saw many invasions, but in the Renaissance period it helped lead Europe back to civilisation. Later, it settled down as a grand duchy. It was conquered by Napoleonic France in the late 18th century and became part of the Italian Republic in the 19th century.
