Description
Matt O'Brien's life revolves around the Italian Renaissance. When he discovers a long-neglected portrait in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's storage bins, his fascination grows - not just because it might be by Leonardo da Vinci, but also due to its captivating subject. The mysterious woman's face seems to stir something within him, and as he delves deeper into her story, Matt finds himself transported across centuries to 15th century Italy. In this richly detailed debut, art, love, and the unexpected places where they meet come alive. As Matt navigates the past, he must confront his own memories and desires, leading to an unforgettable tale that spans centuries and cultures. A beautifully woven narrative awaits those who enter Quattrocento's world of art, history, and romance.
