Traditional House Warming Gifts
One of the more popular requests that I have received via email has to do with traditional house warming gifts. The tradition of giving a new homeowner a gift goes back centuries. In today’s standards many people might find these gifts a bit peculiar, but there is significance behind each item that will mean more to a new homeowner than any gift you could give them.

Giorgione From Castelfranco
Few painters have had so much fame as Giorgione da Castelfranco, known as Zorzo or Zorzi, during his brief existence and later, but for irony of fate, we know little of his life and of his works, none of them signed, some finished by Titian, many counterfeited in the 17th century.

7 Ways to Be Sexy Like an Italian
Some stereotypes exist for a reason. They ring of truth. Let’s face it, the Latin lover is no myth. He (or she for that matter) exists. Many an Italian fulfills the prophecy of oozing sexiness and tempting the hearts – not to mention other parts – of all who encounter them. It doesn’t mean they have to bed everyone who shows interest. All right, all right, some of them do sleep with the world; I admitted the stereotype rings of truth, didn’t I? Of course, now you want to be as sexy as an Italian, too. Well, okay. Here are some ways to pull it off.

Renaissance
By the term Renaissance is generally understood the vast intellectual movement of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. This movement manifested itself first in Italy, afterwards successively in the other countries of Western Europe. It was marked by a wider and deeper knowledge of Greco-Roman antiquity, and a passionate love for its literature and art.

Italy is such a magical place for children that they receive gifts from not one but two mythical figures during the holiday season.

A Tale of the Epiphany
This legend of the Epiphany tells us of a selfish man who realizes the importance of giving to those in need instead of always thinking of himself.
