Description
Daughter of Pope Alexander VI (Borgia) and Vannozza Catanei courtesan: It was more a victim than victimizer as was usually imagined. Was the instrument in the hands of the Pope for strategic alliances made through appropriate marriages: He lived in a dissolute ga environment because of the mother, involved in countless acts of war because of his brother and husbands. In fact at the end he was loyal and faithful wife, unwilling to court intrigues and able ruler in Ferrara. Lover of the arts, and a woman of great faith. He made a lot of charity towards the church and the poor at his death was received for this in a convent where he is still his grave. He was 39 years old.
I dedicate this to reassess the reputation. It appears serene even though surrounded by elements that have ruined the reputation. (The church, war and lust)

Totally fantastic and beautiful creation and marvellous story as well. Love the poses and interelationships not to mention your absolutely exquisite use of transparent coloured texturing. This one is truly a very special work my friend!!
Fantastic composition, colors and transparencies, very impressive work!
Amazing image!
This is really beautiful, my friend. Excellent work!
Probably no woman in the history of the world has been so maligned as Lucrezia Borgia ... Even then made intelligent women to men fear. Awesome picture, fabulous job!
Impressive art work!!!!!
Beautiful ! Very well done!
Opera fantastica Giuliano , personaggi veramente ben costruiti e colori a dir poco sbalorditivi. Eccellente!!
Beautiful image
wonderful. Her first husband, Giovanni Sforza of Pesaro, was my ancestor as his bastard was the founder of my mother's family. Francis was in turn a bastard son of Cosimo Sforza, and nephew of Alessandro Sforza, who, in turn, was a bastard Muzio Attendolo Sforza, therefore, on the family coat of arms have three red bands to signify that the first count was three times a Duke's bastard. :smirk
very good picture and interesting class of history
You are an artist of profound skill and artistry. This has got to be one of the most fascinating and brilliantly executed works of art I have seen on this site, or indeed anywhere. A tremendous concept, the multiple layers, it just blows my mind really. Superlatives are never enough!
