In the US, we think of a spa as a centers of modern luxury. There, one can relax and rejuvenate through bodily ministrations. Not all societies view the spa as so limited. In the Tuscan town of Montecatini you see a spa where the spirit is nurtured, as well as the body. The visitor to Tettucio Terme, built in the late 18th century, is immediately transported to an age of elegance, of effortless style and beauty, as well as body-nourishing mineral waters and special organic products. Exquisite jewels spill from boutiques, cappuccino and fresh pastries beckon. Strains of opera and violin concertos float from the main courtyard. Everything is beautiful. This painted trio, already beautiful, has found the perfect environment.
