Info In this panoramic view, I like to highlight the alternation of wheat fields, vineyards, olive groves and more that create patches of different colors. In the background the mountains of the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines are visible and recognisable at a distance of 50 kilometres. These hilly places are historically important, as the famous Italian poet Dante Alighieri stayed there immediately after being exiled from Florence, and then went to Forlì and Ravenna where he rests in peace. Dante speaks of this place in the Divine Comedy, defining it as: "That sweet land" . All by Terragio67 -- Terragio67 (talk) 14:38, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
Comment This version is similar to a withdrawn previous one. It was necessary to upload a new file because it is not allowed to update improved images larger than 100 MB. -- Terragio67 (talk) 15:07, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

- Support A lovely view, and much better now. Really good quality when we consider the resolution – in the past people often downscaled such stitched panoramas, easily hiding any flaws. I am astonished how closely this landscape resembles some areas in Tuscany – no wonder that Dante felt at home here ;–). – Aristeas (talk) 08:40, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Dante remained in these areas very close to Florence between 1302 and 1303 because he was aiming for an agreement with the Ubaldini family to gain access to Florence, at the time the dominion of the Black Guelphs. Dante was a White Guelph and when he realized that he could not return without taking risks (he had been sentenced to death for treason), he left those places from which he had had security. In chapter XXVII of the Divine Comedy - Inferno (starting from line 25) he speculated and explained differences between places and consequently pointed which area of Romagna could be convenient to live in without running further risks. This chapter was written in this sweet land, because, in any case, it offered him peace and serenity. Terragio67 (talk) 13:23, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

- I find the light a bit underwhelming, but the level of detail more than compensates for it, so full Support from me --The Cosmonaut (talk) 06:59, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
