Isola Galli
In 1917, Leonid Massine, Stravinsky and Picasso came to Positano
to visit their eccentric friend Misha Semenov who lived naked in a old mill.
Seven years later, Massine bought the archipelago facing his friend's house,
built a house and a chapel, restored the old tower and carried on with Le corbusier's design
of a magnificent pool dug in the rock and facing Capri.
Rudolph Nureev already sick, bought the property in 1989,
turned the tower into a dancing studio,
dying shortly after in 1993.
It is today the property of Giovanni Russo.
