The Scoop
August 1508, Lopud Island (Croatia), Adriatic Sea.

Lopud is an evergreen island with lush fig and olive groves by the sea. From the port, dotted with Renaissance stone villas, the scent of fig and crushed olives is so strong that the salty sea breeze carries it beyond, towards forests of Mediterranean pine and cypress. Above, ancient chapels overlooking the harbor like sentinels are overgrown with wild thyme, fennel and rosemary. The whole landscape is an aromatic paradise of green fig, dried pine needles, wild herbs and the subtle, nutty scent of olive oil.
