Belvedere: Flying Above Tuscany
"Beautiful things, when viewed from above, are even more beautiful." Various books recount Tuscany from the sky: from certain heights this land looks even more spectacular. But this book adopts a novel viewpoint: a bird's eye view, high enough to be above the earth's surface, but not out of touch with the earth, moving in that sphere that belongs to the world of birds. By making use of drones, telescopic carbon fibre poles, remote control craft, precision gimbals, and whatever else serves to raise him above the ground—helicopters, balloons, gliders, paragliders, microlight aircraft, biplanes—and climbing towers and chimneys, Guido Cozzi has captured a completely new image of Tuscany. From above, but not too high up.

About the Author

Guido Cozzi has worked on hundreds of photographic assignments for specialist publications in the geographic, ethnographic, and touristic sectors.

He is a founding member of Atlantide Phototravel: a photographic agency specialized in travel coverage established in 1991 in partnership with Stefano Amantini and Massimo Borchi. Today he alternates photographic assignments for major international archives with his own personal research in his native Tuscany, where he experiments with narrative style in keeping with specific themes.
