English term or phrase: framing within its arches
Villa Mangiacane keeps its watchful eye over the haunting Arno Valley, **framing within its arches** the nearby Dome of the Cathedral and Giotto’s Bell Tower. And what is considered a tempestuous marriage of art and vine.

e incornicia tra i suoi archi


Explanation:
"Seeing the Duomo framed by the arches of the Villa's loggia, in a building designed by Michelangelo , where Machiavelli wrote The Prince, was an awe inspiring moment," he says, "Adding to the fascination is the exceptional Tuscan landscape which combines human artistry with nature's beauty." - http://www.mangiacane.com/home/history

"È una costruzione rettangolare, probabilmente rimasta incompiuta. Si caratterizza, sul lato che guarda Firenze, per la presenza di un loggiato a tre archi a tutto sesto decorato da pietre bugnate mentre al piano superiore il loggiato è architravato." - https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_Mangiacane

Cioè, gli ospiti di Villa Mangiacane vedranno la cupola della cattedrale "incorniciata" dagli archi del loggiato.
