Over the Arno - Canvas





Over the Arno - Canvas
The Arno River, a defining feature of Florence, Italy, has shaped the city's history and identity since ancient times. Stretching approximately 150 miles across Tuscany, it served as a vital water source for agricultural and commercial activities, propelling Florence to become a thriving center of trade and culture during the Middle Ages. The iconic Ponte Vecchio, a medieval bridge adorned with shops, has connected the city's heart over the Arno for centuries. However, the river's occasional floods, most notably the Great Flood of 1966, also left a lasting impact, prompting a global effort to preserve and restore Florence's artistic treasures.
Today, the Arno River remains a cherished symbol of Florence's charm and heritage, providing a scenic backdrop that unites the city's past with its vibrant present.
