This contribution summarizes the results of a broader survey focused on the architectural and environmental complex of Lake Bolsena and some of its coastal villages. This piece of Italian territory recognizes a unique heritage of its kind, which has been inhabited since the Etruscan era and saw its most flourishing period during the Renaissance. Recognized in its genius loci by poets and writers, it is an exemplary testimony of a shared, conscious and respectful living. Today the richness of these places is manifest of transitions and cultural, legible in the landscape and in the architectural emergencies and in the ways of living that distinguish the eight villages and the entire basin of the lake. The objective of the study is to map and communicate the evolutions, phases and transitions that characterize these places through the survey of the architectural, environmental and ephemeral qualities. Representation is the privileged means of this narration. In this context, Photography - in its double role of expressive language and documentary medium - through Structure from Motion processes and UAV acquisition methodologies - has allowed an interpretative and documentary reading of landscape and architecture.

Abstract
This contribution summarizes the results of a broader survey focused on the architectural and environmental complex of Lake Bolsena and some of its coastal villages. This piece of Italian territory recognizes a unique heritage of its kind, which has been inhabited since the Etruscan era and saw its most flourishing period during the Renaissance. Recognized in its genius loci by poets and writers, it is an exemplary testimony of a shared, conscious and respectful living. Today the richness of these places is manifest of transitions and cultural, legible in the landscape and in the architectural emergencies and in the ways of living that distinguish the eight villages and the entire basin of the lake. The objective of the study is to map and communicate the evolutions, phases and transitions that characterize these places through the survey of the architectural, environmental and ephemeral qualities. Representation is the privileged means of this narration. In this context, Photography - in its double role of expressive language and documentary medium - through Structure from Motion processes and UAV acquisition methodologies - has allowed an interpretative and documentary reading of landscape and architecture.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
