ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

AN AMAZING NOVEL THAT HAS REVOLUTIONIZED THE ART WORLD, BY THE GREAT EXPERT IN LEONARDO AND THE RENAISSANCE, #1 BESTSELLER IN ITALY AND TRANSLATED IN ELEVEN OTHER COUNTRIES.

The incredible story of Caterina, a girl born in the Caucasus. Her language was the oldest in the world and she was destined to be a warrior like her ancestors had been, but she was violently dragged into history one day. Captured in Tana, the last Venetian colony on the outlet of the river Don, Caterina begins a wonderous journey through the Mediterranean and the Black Sea to reach Florence in full Renaissance splendor. Turned slave by merchants, she had several illegitimate children, but one of them, fruit of her union with a distinguished Florentine notary, was her most beloved, even though he could never call her mother because of her status as slave. That boy, to whom she passed on all her knowledge on creatures and nature, was called Leonardo da Vinci.
