About Ravello
Ravello represents a perfect combination, at its highest level, of natural beauties, art monuments and cultural memories. It is well known that Wagner found in Villa Rufolo both the inspiration for the scenery of Parsifal's second act and the ideas to improve the whole musical structure of his last masterpiece: the concerts which have been held in the same Villa from 1935 years celebrate his memory. Verdi stayed in Villa Rufolo as well, Grieg, during his staying at Hotel Toro, drew his inspiration from the woods and the caves of Ravello for some descriptions of his Peer Gynt, great musicians and conductors - like Bruno Walter, Arturo Toscanini, Enrico Caruso, Bernstein, Kempff and Rostropovitch - stayed and worked here. This musical vocation is still now the heart of Ravello's intense cultural life.
As regards painting, great men stayed in and drew their inspiration from Ravello: it is enough to cite, for the 19th century, Ruskin and for the 20th century Escher, who stayed several times at Hotel Toro, ripened his labyrinthic style and met Jetta, the girl who was to become his wife.
Literature represents the field which has had more intense and lasting relations with Ravello. In Decamerone, Giovanni Boccaccio drew his inspiration from Ravello for the description of the enchanted places which are the background of his short stories and he dedicated a very delicate one (the fourth of those he wrote for the second day) to the adventures of Landolfo Rufolo from Ravello. The wealth of detail which Boccaccio refers to shows that, most likely, he himself visited Ravello and was enchanted by it.
Closer to us, at the beginning of the 20th century, André Gide set in Ravello some of the central pages of The immoralist; Forster spent a holiday here and set in Fontana Carosa and Villa Episcopio his long, beautiful story History of a panic; again here, many members of the Bloomsbury group - among which Virginia Woolf - stayed several times in Hotel Caruso, while Lord Becket made Villa Cimbrone an artistic coterie of intellectuals coming from all over the world.
