July/August 2009 - Special Report: Emilia-Romagna
Ravenna's Ravishing Mosaics
After
15 centuries, Ravenna's
luminous mosaics still shine with the golden brilliance of the empires
that endowed them. These shimmering sacred images reveal both familiar
and unexpected chapters in Italian history. We recommend a private
guide to show you the magic of Ravenna's mosaics.
Bologna: City of Art
With
its appetite for art, Bologna's
contributions to the good life are more than gustatory. Though known as
the "Red City" for its architecture and politics, our writer found a
brilliant palette of museums, galleries, churches and markets with
mouth watering visuals for every taste.
