Amalfi Coast from Villa Rufolo
View from Villa Rufolo
by Walter Maurer

Die Villa wurde von der einflussreichen und wohlhabenden Familie Rufolo im 13. Jahrhundert errichtet. Die Rufolo stammten ursprünglich aus Rom und besaßen eigene Schiffe und Banken in Apulien und auf Sizilien. Im 14. Jahrhundert war König Robert von Anjou Gast in der Villa. Diese ging danach durch die Hände weiterer Familien wie den Confalone, Muscettola und den d'Afflitto. Im Jahr 1851 wurde die Villa an den schottischen industriellen Francis Neville Reid verkauft, welcher eine grundlegende Umgestaltung vornahm. In dieser Form sind die Villa und der Garten noch heute zu besichtigen.

In den Gärten der Villa fand Richard Wagner 1880 die Inspiration für das Bühnenbild des 2. Aktes (Klingsors Zaubergarten) seiner Oper Parsifal. Auch andere Musiker wie Edvard Grieg und Giuseppe Verdi waren von den Gärten beeindruckt. (wikipedia)

Isola di Procida, Napoli
Procida
by SIMON Hervé

Alphonse DE LAMARTINE a séjourné à Procida où il a connu son premier amour, Graziella, une fille de pêcheur. Il a écrit un roman intitulé Graziella et plusieurs poèmes. Graziella era la figlia di un pescatore di Procida ed era il primo amore del scrittore e poeta francese Alphonse De Lamartine. Oggi, Graziella è diventata un mito a Procida, l’immagine della donna procidana tipica cioè mediterranea, solare, simplice e bella. Ogni anno, in una festa popolare chiamata il sacro del mare, si elegge Graziella, la « Miss Procida ».

Sunny Positano, Italy

by Adelheid Smitt

A sunny day on the Amalfi coast, a tourist hotspot. I remember it was impossible to find a parking spot, so I jumped out of our van and took this photo while the rest of our group drove circles before picking me up again. This year it will be very different there. My best wishes go to all the people in this beautiful country who make their living in tourism, and are facing a very difficult year. I hope we can all travel again soon, for our sake and for theirs.

Digging in old photos is probably one of the best things to do in times of Corona Virus, when you're tied to the house. Here is a picture from a wonderful trip to Amalfi. Hopefully Italy will overcome this dramatic crisis like ourselves and we can travel to this wonderful country again soon.
