orn in Caracas to a family originally from Sant’Andrea di Conza, a small village in the province of Avellino, Andres Cignarella carries with him an Italian identity rooted in his Irpinian heritage. After spending his childhood and early years in Venezuela, he returned to Italy with his family, where he completed his education and began his career in the hospitality industry.

His entry into the world of the hotel industry took place in high-end establishments, where he held various roles that allowed him to develop a comprehensive understanding of service and hospita-

lity. This path led him to the role of Concierge, recognizable by the iconic crossed keys on the lapel of his jacket. Today he is a member of Les Clefs d’Or Italy, Tuscany chapter - that also includes Umbria and Emilia-Romagna - and serves at the five-star Grand Hotel Da Vinci in Cesenatico. He has gained international experience, as well as numerous destinations in Switzerland and Italy, from Venice to Portofino, and on to Fiesole, where he worked with the Belmond group. His connection to Florence remains a cornerstone of his career and serves as a constant source of inspiration.

SIGNATURE DISH

TUNA PIZZA Akira Back’s iconic dish arrives in town TEXT Martina Olivieri

A

mong the signature dishes of the Akira Back Florence restaurant at the W Florence, the Tuna Pizza perfectly embodies chef Akira Back’s vision: to surprise, blend cultures, and transform the unexpected into something irresistible. At first glance, it seems provocative - a pizza in a Japanese restaurant - but the first bite is a revelation. The crust is paper-thin and crispy, almost like a golden tortilla, topped with an intense, enveloping umami aioli sauce, enriched with citrusy notes of ponzu. On top, silky-smooth and delicate tuna sashimi meets the aromatic freshness of micro shiso, while

a few drops of white truffle oil finish the dish with an elegant, lingering aroma. It is a perfect balance of textures and flavors. A true manifesto of Back’s cuisine, where umami - that pleasant savory flavor typical of Japanese tradition - takes center stage. Its history is fascinating: it began as a creative evolution of the Spicy Tuna

Roll, moved on to Crispy Rice, and arrived at this contemporary form almost by chance, when the chef, ever the improviser, whipped up a meal using whatever ingredients were on hand, wrapping them in a tortilla. The result is iconic.

SECRET FLORENCE

Getting Lost Among Street Names, Anecdotes, and Hidden Stories TEXT Teresa Favi PHOTO Lorenzo Cotrozzi

33

ITINERARY

I

n Florence, street names are never random: they are miniature tales, traces of vanished trades, fierce rivalries, and popular wit. Wandering aimlessly through these alleys means entering a more authentic city, where every sign is a fragment of history.

The advice is simple: put the map aside every now and then. The strangest streets are also the ones you’d be least likely to seek out… but the ones that leave the deepest impression.

Step away from the constant flow of Piazza della Signoria and slip into the Chiasso dei Baroncelli: just a few steps are enough to hear the city’s noise fade away.

This narrow, evocative passageway, linked to one of the most powerful families of medieval Florence, was 34

also a refuge for soldiers: the 200 feared Landsknechts whom Cosimo I de’ Medici had chosen as his personal guards and who were stationed here. An alley that seems quiet today,

GETTING LOST IN FLORENCE REVEALS A HIDDEN CITY OF STREET NAMES, STORIES, AND SECRETS BEYOND THE POSTCARD VIEWS but was once anything but peaceful.

Not far away, Via dell’Amorino changes the mood: amid intrigue and passion, the name evokes romantic tales and an atmosphere that also inspired Niccolò

Machiavelli. Here, Florence plays with the seduction of words and history, blending them seamlessly.

If you haven’t ‘lost your way’ yet, try Via delle Serve Smarrite, a small alley connecting Via Vinegia to Borgo dei Greci, just a stone’s throw from Piazza della Signoria and Santa Croce. The name is no coincidence: women from the countryside used to come here in search of work as maids and often got lost, swallowed up by the city. It is one of those places where Florence shows its more human, less celebrated side.

But Florence also loves the taste of history told through images. Not far away, the Chiasso del Buco owes its name to an underground tavern where patrons literally descended into a “hole” to drink. Not just any place: it is said that

EVEN STREET NAMES TELL STORIES: OLD RIVALRIES, AND POPULAR TALES SHAPE A CITY BEST DISCOVERED BY WANDERING between one glass and the next, Lorenzo de’ Medici, Michelangelo Buonarroti, and Leonardo da Vinci would meet here. Here, grand history blends with everyday life, unfiltered.

Then comes the city’s more turbulent side. The Vicolo dello Scandalo (or del Panico) tells of fierce feuds between the Cerchi and the Donati: neighbors, sworn enemies. To separate them, a narrow passage was created, almost a desperate urban planning gesture to contain the hatred.

A few steps away, Dante Alighieri’s house reminds us how deeply these ten-

sions have also shaped the city’s literature and imagination.

Via Torta, on the other hand, owes its name to its shape: it is a curved, ‘crooked’ street that traces an arc between the buildings.

The term has nothing to do with sweets or pastry shops, but with something twisted, non-linear. And that’s not all: its path likely follows the layout of Florence’s ancient Roman amphitheater. Walking along it, without realizing it, you retrace the structure of what was the Roman amphitheater 2,000 years ago.

Crossing the Arno, the at-

mosphere changes again.

In the Oltrarno, amid shops and quiet, lies the ‘Lost Alley’ of Via de’ Coverelli: narrow, shady, almost timeless. A little further on, Via del Campuccio runs alongside the Giardino Torrigiani, the largest private green oasis within a European city. Here Florence slows down, breathes, and retreats.

Via Toscanella, which runs from Ponte Vecchio to Palazzo Pitti, takes its name from the scientist Paolo Dal Pozzo Toscanelli and is depicted in one of the paintings by Ottone Rosai, a leading figure in 39

ITINERARY

20th-century Italian painting. This street has exuded art since the Renaissance, when intellectuals, writers, and architects such as Brunelleschi and Vasari gathered beneath a loggia.

In the heart of the Oltrarno, around Piazza Santo Spirito, the streets speak the language of the ancient guilds: Via dei Velluti tells of merchants and precious fabrics, while the tiny Via Sguazza (also known as Chiasso Guazzacoglie) owes its name to the rainwater that pooled among the stones.

Here, according to tradition, Mona Lisa, the world’s most famous smile, was born. Just a stone’s throw from Palazzo Pitti, Piazza della Passera is today one of the city’s most authentic and lively corners, filled with trattorias and small shops. But what about the name? The stories are in40

tertwined: the most innocent links it to the bird; another to an ancient local surname or nickname; and then there’s the more mischievous interpretation,

FROM NARROW ALLEYS TO CURIOUS STREETS, FLORENCE UNVEILS TALES OF POWER, PASSION, AND EVERYDAY LIFE THROUGH TIME typically Florentine. In popular parlance, in fact, 'passera' also had a rather explicit double meaning, and considering the liveliness of the area – with its taverns and street life – the

name might not be entirely coincidental.

For a climb to the finish (literally), head toward Costa San Giorgio. Amid breathtaking views and suspended silence, every step tells a story: Galileo observed the sky from here, while artists and intellectuals found inspiration among these stones. And then there’s Via dell’Erta Canina: steep, exhausting, unforgettable. The name says it all – a 'dog’s' climb – but the reward is a view worth every step.

Getting lost in Florence, after all, is the best way to truly find it.

Not the Florence of postcards, but the one that still breathes among narrow alleys, forgotten stories, and unexpected glimpses.

A city that never ceases to surprise, especially when you let it reveal itself without haste.

INSIGHTS INTO THE PRESENT Palazzo Strozzi: Rothko and Superflex Explore Contemporary Art TEXT Francesca Lombardi PHOTO Ela Bialkowska OKNO studio

ART

T

his spring, Palazzo Strozzi presents two perspectives on contemporary art: on the one hand, the absolute interiority of Mark Rothko; on the other, the collective and environmental dimension of the Danish collective Superflex.

The exhibition Rothko in Florence is the highlight of the season. It is not merely a retrospective, but a project designed to highlight the deep bond that unites the American artist with the city. More than seventy works trace Rothko’s entire career: from his figurative beginnings in the 1930s and 1940s, marked by Expressionist and Surrealist influences, to his celebrated mature paintings, where large, suspended chromatic surfaces transform painting into an emotional and spiritual experience. The highlight of the exhibition, however, lies in its connection to Florence. Rothko visited

the city in 1950, remaining deeply impressed by Beato Angelico’s frescoes in San Marco and by the space of the Vestibule of the Medici-Laurentian Library designed by Michelangelo. Two very different places, united by a rare ability: to transform space into an inner experience. The exhibition begins here, showing how his dialogue with the Renaissance influenced his artistic exploration.

Rothko’s abstraction, often interpreted as pure American modernity, thus reveals older roots. In his rectangles of color, one senses the legacy of walls decorated with 15th-century frescoes, the harmonious construction of Renaissance space, and the tension between measure and transcendence. Color does not decorate: it envelops, breathes, and holds light and silence. Standing before the large canvases of the 1950s and 1960s, the viewer does not simply observe a painting

but crosses a mental threshold, entering a zone of perceptual concentration. It is no surprise that Rothko remains one of the most beloved artists among the public today: few, like him, manage to express themselves directly, without narrative, relying entirely on chromatic vibration.

The exhibition’s itinerary also highlights the metamorphoses of his artistic language: from his early works, in which figures, interiors, and classical references reveal a still-narrative gaze, to the Multiforms of the second half of the 1940s – a decisive moment when form dissolves and allows suspended chromatic fields to emerge. From that moment on, painting becomes essential, almost inevitable. It is an apparent reduction: in reality, the more Rothko removes, the more he intensifies the emotional complexity of the works.

It is no coincidence that the project extends beyond Pala45

zzo Strozzi and directly involves the city.

At the Museo di San Marco, some works engage in a dialogue with the cells decorated by Beato Angelico’s frescoes, while at the Laurenziana, paintings and studies resonate with Michelangelo’s architecture, which so deeply impressed the artist. It is an intelligent curatorial choice: rather than merely displaying masterpieces, the exhibition situates Rothko within the sources that nourished him, reconnecting him to an often-forgotten European lineage. While Rothko leads toward an individual, almost liturgical silence, Superflex.

There Are Other Fish In The 48

Sea, in the courtyard of Palazzo Strozzi, instead opens a collective reflection on the future. The Danish collective imagines a scenario in which rising sea levels will radically alter our environment and proposes architecture designed not only for humans but also for other species.

Eight pink travertine columns emerge from a large pool of water, transforming the Renaissance courtyard into a suspended landscape, somewhere between ruin and anticipation. The faceted surfaces are conceived as future marine habitats: niches, handholds, shelters. The effect is both disconcerting and poetic. Where Rothko in-

vited an inward immersion, Supeflex invites us to shift our gaze and imagine a coexistence among species. The water reflects the columns, the visitors, and the sky, making the courtyard an unstable, ever-changing space, as if already transformed by climate change.

Two very different, yet complementary, exhibitions. Rothko reminds us that color can still be a form of meditation.

Superflex reminds us that no contemplation is possible without rethinking our relationship with the planet. In an era dominated by speed and noise, Palazzo Strozzi brings these two urgent concerns together.

IN THE CIVIC ART GALLERY, HOWEVER, TIME ACCELERATES AND SHIFTS GEARS: ROSSO FIORENTINO’S DEPOSITION

V

olterra appears suddenly, perched high on the ridge, suspended between sky and hills. It is a city that does not reveal itself immediately: it unfolds step by step, amid ancient stone, sudden silences, and views that seem to belong to another time. Here, Tuscany shows a more austere side.

Its Etruscan origins remain at the heart of the city’s identity to this day. The mighty walls, monumental gates, and artifacts preserved in the museums tell of the grandeur of a civilization that made Volterra one of the most important centers of ancient Italy. Among the most fa60

mous landmarks is the Porta all’Arco, a monumental entrance marked by three mysterious carved heads. Porta San Francesco still preserves traces of the original frescoes, while Porta Fiorentina – originally named Porta Sant’Agnolo after the nearby church – was built in the 13th century to replace Porta Diana, the ancient northern Etruscan gateway. Inside, above the arch, there is a white cross on a black background, while on the outside, the Medici coat of arms is visible. Strolling through the historic center means traversing different centuries within a few meters. The Middle Ages resurface in the elegance of Piazza

dei Priori, the civic heart of the city, dominated by the oldest town hall in Tuscany.

All around, narrow alleys and stone palaces, where daily life coexists with monumental architecture. Climbing the bell tower, the view opens up over the Era and Cecina valleys, amid cultivated fields, rolling hills, and vast horizons.

A few steps from the square stands the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, austere on the outside and surprising on the inside, with its rich gilded coffered ceiling and works of art that bear witness to the city’s religious and cultural significance over the centuries. Opposite, the octagonal Baptistery, clad in light mar-

Volterra skyline

ble, adds another piece to an urban ensemble of great harmony. But it is in its museums that Volterra fully reveals its soul. The Etruscan Museum Guarnacci is one of the most important in Italy and houses extraordinary artifacts: funerary urns, votive objects, and evidence of a refined and still partly mysterious civilization. Among them, The Shadow of the Evening stands out—a slender, elongated figure, almost unreal, that seems to anticipate artistic sensibilities of much later periods. In the Civic Art Gallery, however, time accelerates and shifts gears: Rosso Fiorentino’s Deposition strikes with its expressive power, featur-

ing taut bodies and vibrant colors that break the Renaissance equilibrium and open the door to a more restless and modern vision. One of Volterra’s jewels is also the Roman Theater, built in the 1st century B.C. and considered among the best-preserved in Italy. Located in the Vallebuona archaeological area, near the medieval walls, it was financed by the Caecina family, as attested by an inscription preserved in the Guarnacci Museum. It could seat about 3,500 spectators and still retains nineteen rows of seats.

The archaeological area also includes the Etruscan Acropolis of Piano di Castello, with the remains of temples active

between the 7th and 3rd centuries BC, further proof of the city’s extraordinary historical continuity. The Medici Fortress, which dominates Volterra and defines its skyline, was built in 1474, immediately after Florence conquered the city. Not only did it serve a defensive function, but it also served to monitor the city and prevent potential rebellions.

It consists of two sections, the Rocca Antica and the Rocca Nuova, connected by a double curtain wall and a walkway. The Rocca Antica has a semi-elliptical layout, and restorations have highlighted its oldest defensive structures.

Alabaster crafting

is a large square stone structure with corners reinforced by bastions, among which the massive circular Torre del Mastio stands out, used as a prison since ancient times.

Today, the Torre del Mastio is open to visitors, while the Fortress, still a prison, remains inaccessible to the public. Alabaster deserves a chapter of its own – a light, translucent stone that has defined local craftsmanship for centuries.

Quarried from the surrounding quarries and worked by Volterra artisans, it has made the city famous worldwide.

In the workshops of the city center, the work continues to this day, transforming the material into vases, sculp64

tures, design objects, and unique works of art. The Balze, deep gorges carved into the clay soil, create a dramatic and ever-changing

THE ETRUSCAN MUSEUM GUARNACCI IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT IN ITALY landscape, shaped by erosion.

The area around Volterra also boasts three splendid nature reserves: Berignone, an area of woods and Mediterranean

scrub rich in wildlife; Monterufoli-Caselli, a vast wooded area with great biodiversity; and the Montenero Reserve, where trails winding through holm oaks and chestnut trees lead to ancient ruins and prime vantage points for spotting roe deer and peregrine falcons.

Finally, the cuisine. Even at the table, Volterra maintains a distinct character, faithful to its land. The truffle is the undisputed star, especially during the harvesting seasons, and enriches simple dishes like pici and tagliolini.

Alongside this are the flavors of rural tradition: rustic soups, game meats, tripe, and above all, cheeses.

FROM THE HILLS OF CHIANTI TO THE LANDSCAPES OF THE CRETE SENESI AND THE POETRY OF THE VAL D’ORCIA

W

ith its dirt roads winding like ribbons through the hills, gentle slopes that invite you to slow down, and breathtaking landscapes, Tuscany is a land that seems tailor-made to be experienced pedal stroke by pedal stroke. An immersive journey that, bend after bend, lets you savor every view and scent at the rhythm of your own breath, among orderly rows of vineyards, stone walls guarding ancient stories, medieval villages, and castles overlooking the valley. Every kilometer is a discovery, every climb a promise, every descent a small moment of freedom.

Among the most beautiful routes are those mapped and curated by Terra Eroica: a project that transforms the epic spirit of the famous L’Eroica – with which the Associazione Toscana Chiavi d’Oro – Clefs d’Or launched

an important partnership in 2025 – into an experience accessible year-round.

From the hills of Chianti to the geometric landscapes of the Crete Senesi and the poetry of the Val d’Orcia, traversing historic roads like the Via Francigena: a network of permanent routes that retraces the paths of the historic vintage-bike cycling tour, held every first Sunday in October, and its ‘spring edition’, Eroica Montalcino, scheduled for May 31 this year.

IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF L’EROICA 12 stages, for a total of approximately 210 kilometers.

From Gaiole, after a gentle climb through centuries-old cypress trees, you arrive at Castello di Brolio, the historic winery of the Ricasoli family; after 17 kilometers, the ‘leccione’ stands in all its majesty, immortalized by Bernardo Bertolucci in the film Stealing Beauty. From

here, the route skirts the historic center of Siena, but nothing prevents a small detour to dismount and admire the beauty of the Duomo and Piazza del Campo.

Continuing on, the road opens up toward the Val d’Arbia, blending Etruscan heritage with the ancient site of Murlo, Roman heritage with the Via Francigena, and medieval heritage with the village of Radi. Past Bibbiano, heading toward Montalcino, you face one of the most challenging stretches: the climb to Castiglion del Bosco, made famous by the 2010 Giro d’Italia. A stop at the medieval fortress and a glass of Brunello are the prelude to a scenic descent through vineyards and dirt roads toward Torrenieri, from where you can reach the picturesque village of Buonconvento. The unique landscape of the Crete Senesi badlands accompanies you all the way to Asciano.

Dirt roads winding like ribbons through the hills, gentle slopes (ph. Pasquale Paradiso)

From here, you tackle the ‘queen’ of L’Eroica: the dirt road of Monte Sante Marie, leading to Castelnuovo Berardenga. The climb toward Vagliagli is a journey through vineyards and shady woods, continuing on to Radda in Chianti, from where, in just over 9 kilometers, you return to Gaiole.

IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF EROICA MONTALCINO 12 stages, for a total of approximately 155 kilometers.

The route starts from Piazza del Popolo in Montalcino and, passing through Torrenieri, enters the heart of the Val d’Orcia with the village of San Quirico d’Orcia. A stop at the iconic Chapel of the 70

for its excellent olive oil.

Head toward Trequanda and then San Giovanni d’Asso, a region famous for white truffles. From here, you can also reach Buonconvento, the starting point of the longest and most challenging stretch: nearly 38 kilometers with an elevation gain of about 700 meters, including the climb to Castiglion del Bosco, all the way to Sant’Angelo Scalo. Another 6 kilometers brings you to Sant’Angelo in Colle, from where a picturesque dirt road leads to the Abbey of Sant’Antimo and the nearby village of Castelnuovo dell’Abate. The final 9 kilometers finally take you back to Montalcino.

A wine bar and food and wine bookshop, between the Duomo and Santa Croce. The space is divided into three rooms: the main one, where you can drink wine, eat something appetizing or read rare publications; the upper one, which is accessed via a small staircase and the wine cellar, where the walls proudly display their exten- sive collection.

An elegant cocktail bar and bistro with a unique view of the Ponte Vecchio and Arno river as if from a boat. If the view from the outdoor tables is amazing, the tables inside are in no way inferior, surrounded as they are by a collection of 20th-century works of art. Equally wonderful are the dishes by Chef Claudio Mengoni, who never ceases to amaze his customers.
