Andreea –
The course combines theory (well structured summaries of the main features defining a certain period/art current + the relevant terminology in Italian) and practice (exploring the various treasures of Montepulciano, from Etruscan artefacts to baroque churches). The outdoors part is definitely the most interesting. Sara is very knowledgeable and can give a lot of context about the art works that can be found around every corner in Montepulciano. In my case, the heatwave at the end of July led to reducing this part to one day out of 5, but Sara has compensated, by offering lots of pointers on Siena, Pienza and other places I visited on my own. She also proposed detailed analyses of Italian masterpieces that can be found in Tuscan museums and recommended further reading materials. An enriching experience!
