About This Novel
There is Greek specialty wine exuding the scent of pine, roasted guinea chicken served on a silver plate decorated with the coat of arms of the Medici family, Pecorino goat cheese, and snacks made of almond flour wrapped in cream that can be swallowed in one bite. There are also studios of artists in the center of Florence in the 16th century, major banks all over Europe, and a dazzling array of shops filled with foreign goods. You will pass by plainly dressed civilian women cooking Egyptian bean soup in a cauldron, and you will have a heated discussion about Machiavelli's prophecies with aristocrats wearing fine satin and lace. What's even more incredible is that you can also go to watch and "interrupt" Michelangelo's own creation of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling frescoes! Not only that, the love drama between a handsome man and an elegant geisha, the power struggle between ambitious young people, and the complex relationships between the great powers at that time are all presented in this "Renaissance Novel" series. Marco came to Rome, Olympia's hometown, and met Michelangelo, the painter of the Sistine Chapel ceiling. He was influenced by art. Under the leadership of Enzo, he immersed himself in searching for ancient ruins every day and felt the charm of ancient Rome. After learning about Olympia's past, he decided to cross social barriers and marry her. However, when Venice lost a naval battle with Turkey, Marco's sense of national honor forced him to return to Venice. The fate of the two people once again encountered the impact of the historical wave.
