When
Fiore was restoring Peralta, her dream was that eventually it would
be a haven for artists; a special place where people could come and
feel the inspiration to create; she wanted it to retain its medieval
austerity and simplicity and to be an oasis of calm and tranquillity
where artists and writers could escape from the "real" world
and be in surroundings where they could work in peace.
Peralta is a dream for artists - everywhere you look there is a potential
painting in front of your eyes! And May and June are ideal months,
with long days, excellent light and reasonable temperatures.
During the past thirty years, there have always been artists and writers
who have somehow found Peralta. Staying here mainly in the winter
months when the hamlet is very peaceful and virtually empty of people,
these artists and writers form the handful who have come the closest
to fulfilling Fiore's primary vision. |
