This book captures the story of a talented Italian painter who brushed elbows with other artistic greats and royalty, always striving to create the perfect portrait. Along the way, she led an adventure filled life.

Told by elderly Sofonisba telling a student her life story, artfully including 1 lie he must pick out, it takes us through love affairs, chance meetings, bloody plots, & scenes of intrigue.

One word sum up: adventure.

4⭐️ I got this as an ARC from the author. I have read other books by this author and have enjoyed the others as well. And this was no exception. Like the other books, the author fictionalizes the life of the Italian artist Sofonisba Angulssola during the early part of her career. I quite enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys art from the Renaissance and wants to know a little more #2020 #historicalfiction #fiction
