Preserving the Region's Heritage
Beyond his artistic pursuits, Becker became deeply involved in preserving and promoting the Tuscan heritage.

This organization played a pivotal role in safeguarding historical landmarks, restoring ancient churches, and supporting local artisans, ensuring the vitality of Tuscany's rich past.
Becker's advocacy extended to the preservation of the region's natural environment. He was instrumental in establishing the Maremma Regional Park, a protected area that spans over 400 square kilometers of pristine coastline, wetlands, and forests. His efforts to conserve Tuscany's biodiversity and promote sustainable practices left a lasting legacy on the region.
