THE VENETO

Something pulls people from around the world to Italy today. The country is among the top travel destinations in Europe. And much of the attraction springs from the Renaissance. People who haven´t stepped inside a church in their hometowns crowd into St. Peter´s Basilica. Michelangelo´s David draws visitors to Florence. The mirrored writing and intriguing drawings of Leonardo da Vinci´s notebooks draw fans to Milan. Folks take trips of a lifetime to the Renaissance sites of Italy not because they are lovers of art and architecture or readers of Italian literature (though many are). They go because the Renaissance achievements of Italians are great achievements of mankind. Art historians can better explain the universal appeal of Italian Renaissance works. But for me, the attraction is something in the gut, something that tells me this statue, palace or garden belongs to all of us.
