    "The dew woman", a historical novel written by Gianrocco Guerriero, takes up a legend that still today in the Lucanian towns of Alto Bradano ... "a beautiful princess came out of the Monteserico Castle and walked naked among the dew-soaked ears of wheat". In reality, the beautiful princess was Lyda Borelli, the Divine of Italian silent cinema, who stayed for a few days at the Castle of Monteserico, in 1918.

    Lyda Borelli had married Count Vittorio Cini, a senator of the Kingdom and a well-known Italian industrialist, and for love she had left the scene in 1918.

    The future Count Cini, at that time, was the owner of the Castello di Monteserico, a Norman-Swabian manor recently restored, located in the territory of Genzano. In 1918, Vittorio Cini embarked on a journey to Sicily with his wife Lyda 4 months pregnant with their first child Giorgio.
