PERSONALITIES
"I assure you that even with the experience I have had of the most
beautiful landscapes in Italy and elsewhere, I know of nothing that can
compare with the view one enjoys from the tower and the Queen's palace"
(Robert Browning letter dated 1889 to friend Mrs FitzGerald ).
The charm of Asolo attracted many intellectuals and artists they
included Robert Browning, Eugene Benson, Igor Strawinsky, Ernest
Hemingway... Among them three non-conformists and intellectual women
lived here: Caterina Cornaro former Queen of Cyprus who exiliated in
Asolo in 1489, created here a magnificent Renaissance court of artists,
men of letters and poets. Eleonora Duse (1858-1924) star of the
international theatre world, and Freya Stark explorer, author and
photographer.
CULINARY TRADITION/ WINES/ CRAFT
Everywhere in Asolo you can find a “trattoria” to savor the
unforgettable dishes of the culinary tradition: as "sarde in saor",
Treviso or Castelfranco radicchio (a kind of red lettuce), pasta and
beans, pumpkin and white asparagus from Bassano.
Asolo is part of the national circuit of Città Del Vino (Wine Cities),
and celebrates in August with special wine tastings its first class
wines.
Fabrics and embroidery, hand-painted ceramics and antique furniture
represent the Asolan handicrafts: a treasure of an ancient knowledge to
discover in the heart of the town:
- The Embroidery School of Asolo for linen, lace and artistic ornaments.
- The colorful ceramics for beautiful vases, and the finely painted
cups.
- The antiques market, for furniture, pictures, jewellery in the many
antiques galleries under the porticoes and in the squares of the city
center.
