Thanks guys. I'll be flying into Rome most likely and taking the train up to Chianciano (where the museum I'm showing in is located), which is a bit northeast of Sienna. I'll likely train into Florence as well, as it is my favorite city in the world, although Rome is surprisingly charming as well. The last time I was in Italy in September was during 9/11 (December is also fun - the Italians do Christmas very elegantly as one would imagine). Not fun, but the Italians were an incredibly gracious lot. They love America and pushed hard for Sicily to become a 51st state after the war.
Thanks for the tip John, I'll look into Emilio Scaravilli.
