About This Book
"L’abbazia di San Girolamo al Monte di Portofino, meglio conosciuta con il nome di Cervara, fu fondata dai monaci benedettini nel XIV secolo. Meta di illustri pellegrini nel corso dei secoli, custodisce l’unico esempio di giardino all’italiana che si affaccia sul mare della Liguria. Dopo i recenti restauri condotti dall’attuale proprietà sull’architettura e sul giardino, la Cervara si offre oggi al visitatore in tutto il suo splendore come lo spettacolare corredo fotografico di questo volume testimonia."-- The Abbey of San Girolamo at Mount Portofino, better known as Cervara, was founded in the fourteenth century by Benedictine monks. For centuries the destination of illustrious pilgrims, it currently boasts the only example of an Italian-style garden, which overlooks the Ligurian Sea. After the recent restoration of the architcture and the garden by its current owner, today Cervara can be admired in all its splendor, as shown by the spectacular images collected in this volume."--
