Editori dell'Acero

This great volume greatly expands the outline of Romanic churches in the Florentine countryside which begun with the publication on Mugello and Val di Sieve, by embracing the entire medieval diocese of Florence up to the south of the Arno river.

One-hundreds and twenty five Romanic buildings are presented, many of which unknown, that offer a capillary outline of most densely crowded medieval Tuscany. This area embraces a territory that, leaving from the Valdelsa fiorentina, crosses the Val di Pesa, the Val di Greve and reaches the course of the Arno river in Florence.

It's a great triangular area that has its corners in Empoli, Firenze-Bagno a Ripoli and Poggibonsi.

In the middle of such trangle there are the towns of the so-called Florentine Chianti, like Saint Casciano Val di Pesa, Tavarnelle, Impruneta, while the sides are marked north-side by Montelupo, Lastra a Signa and Scandicci; south-west side by Montespertoli, Certaldo and Castelfiorentino; south-east side by Barberino Val d' Elsa and by the extreme parts of the commons of the Chianti area.
