Botticelli in the Fire
SYNOPSIS:
Sandro Botticelli is devoted to beauty, sensuality, and pleasure. While painting The Birth of Venus, however, the limits of his dedication are put to the test by the arrival of a conservative priest leading a populist revolution in Lorenzo de' Medici鈥檚 Florence. When his full-throttle, decadent ways catch up to him, will the famed artist sacrifice his work鈥� or the life of his young apprentice, Leonardo Da Vinci? Botticelli in the Fire is an ambitious, modern story that sets the present political moment ablaze.
