The scenery of Florence, Italy

Florence (Firenze) is a city in central Italy, the capital of the Tuscany region, located in a basin on the western foothills of the central Apennines. During the 15th and 16th centuries, Florence was the most famous art center in Europe, renowned throughout Europe for its fine arts and crafts and textiles. It is the birthplace of the European Renaissance movement and a world-famous cultural tourism destination. From 1865 to 1871, it served as the temporary capital of the Kingdom of Italy after unification. The industry is dominated by glassware, ceramics, high-end clothing, and leather. Gold and silver processing, as well as the production of artistic replicas, are also quite famous. The Florence Biennale of Contemporary Art, along with the Venice Biennale and the Milan Triennial, is known as one of the three major art exhibitions in Italy.
