The Tigress of Forli: Caterina Sforza. →
The author of this book is the one of the top three best professors I have ever had. She somehow instilled me with interest in baroque art (though the city of Rome helped her cause). She even advised Ron Howard and Tom Hanks when they were filming Angels and Demons in Rome, for much of that story had to do with Bernini.
This book might be dry to some, but give Lev a chance to spark your interest.
