Story
Катерину, девушку, рожденную свободной, угнали в рабство и отняли все – Родину, мечты, будущее. Невероятно сильная духом она выстояла – боролась, страдала, любила, вернула себе свободу и человеческое достоинство. Одного из детей, которого она родила еще рабыней, Катерина любила больше жизни. И он отвечал ей взаимностью, хотя ему нельзя было называть ее мамой. Имя этого ребенка прогремело по всему миру. Его звали Леонардо да Винчи.

Story
Kit Marlowe: playwright, poet, lover. In the plague-stricken streets of Elizabethan England, Kit flirts with danger, leaving a trail of enemies and old flames in his wake. His plays are a roaring success; he seems destined for greatness. But the queen's eyes are everywhere and the air is laced with paranoia. When Marlowe is arrested on charges of treason, heresy and sodomy—all of which are punishable by death—he is released on bail with the help of Thomas Walsingham, a man he presumes to be his friend, but who has in fact hired the infamous assassin Robin Poley to take care of Marlowe.

In seventeenth-century Rome, an arrogant and reckless artist named Caravaggio drinks and brawls his way through his violent, insatiable life, all while painting some of the world’s greatest religious works of art.

Now, in the village of Monte Piccolo, a priest claims to have discovered a lost painting by the famed artist in the storage room of an orphanage. Retired professor A. R. Richman believes it’s a delusional dream.
