The following film is a work in progress for a larger film work. It demonstrates my engagement with the La Verna landscape in the Tuscan Apennines which I travelled to in 2012. Further insights into my journey, and the dialogues I found between Bellini's 'St Francis' painting and the landscape in and around the Sasso Spicco, can be found here. I am currently developing the film to feature 12 sites which I believe are relevant to our understanding of how the painting may have been made.
