Abbondanza. Abundance in italian. And how true this must have seemed to the ruling families of the Renaissance, just as it holds true today for modern Italians.
Positioned at the high point of the Boboli Gardens, this statue of 'Abbondanza' stands sure and confident, overseeing all that is Firenze below it. Her storied past, seen as the beginning of modern civilization living concurrent with the vibrant and progressive present.
