In the surroundings of Acerenza, the golden light of sunset illuminates the hills creating a magical atmosphere. The hill in the foreground, lit by the grazing rays of the sun, shines with warm tones ranging from yellow to intense orange. The long shadows accentuate the undulations of the terrain, revealing the subtle elevation variations of the landscape. Acerenza, an ancient episcopal city perched on a hill, dominates this territory that marks the transition between the Murge Plateau and the first foothills of the Lucanian Apennines. The fields, already harvested, show stubble reflecting the twilight light.
