If you find yourself alone, riding green fields with the sun on your face, dont be troubled. For you are in Elysium, and youre already dead!

The entire valley (Val d'Orcia) is a UNESCO world heritage site, because its appearance has changed so little over the centuries ->

My ex told me they filmed these scenes right outside her hometown near San Quirico, Italy. Not sure how true that was since she lied a lot.

man... it's crazy to think those trees are older than most countries. ;)

How about a tree that's older than ALL countries? https://i.ytimg.com/vi/PNrLvNgct-w/sddefault.jpg#404_is_fine

that's legit badass

Also the double tracked road wouldn't be accurate in Roman times. Those are made by modern automobiles. In Roman times the grass strip in 1/

Not quite right, double tracked but thinner.

wouldn't be there due to common place single horse driven carts where the horses trample the middle part of the road. 2/2

Ah, yes! Thanks!

Seeing both pictures, it's safe to assume the grain is CGI? Especially the grain along side the road?
Type17
Fields there can look very different between seasons, so no CGI is very plausible
QuiteHugeMegaPlusUltra
Here you have the Windows XP field then and now. You can see that we change landscapes pretty quickly

If it had been CGI, I assume they would not have made it look like modern farming. The wheat had tractor tracks in it from dusting, and the
rihani3
road had a green middle line, which would not have been there in medieval times, since the horse drawing the cart would dig up the road.
alexburgers
the romans liked their 2 horse cars though, which is what set the standard track width for a lot of stuff, including railways.
RazzleDazzle69
Medieval times were marked by the fall of the western Roman empire just fyi
postalval
the grains too short, ancient grains were taller, modern grains are selectively bred to be shorter to reduce the workload of combines
