I agree that a few days in Ravenna would be about right. Bologna is nearby and stunning. If you rent a car, you could spend some time in small villages or rural properties, such as some of the R&Cs (which are highly variable in Italy IME). Verona would be another possibility.
From the USA, I would aim for flights to either Venice or Milan.
