Stories Set in Florence
The Renaissance was essentially a Florentine startup: Medici banking money paid Brunelleschi to dome a cathedral and Michelangelo to carve a giant, and the whole city became a gallery with streets. Five centuries later it still runs on that investment. Inferno races through its corridors; A Room with a View lingers on its hills.
