Amidst the cries of exclamation, Ye Tian and David erected the portrait, and everyone at the scene also straightened their heads, admiring the never-known da Vinci's work.

At this moment, Ye Tianqinglang's voice suddenly came and reached the ears of everyone at the live and live broadcast.

"Yes, this is the portrait of the Countess of Forli and Catrina Sforza. I saw another portrait of her at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, and I am pretty sure they are the same person.

Of course, the "Katerina" in the Uffizi Gallery is much worse than this one. It is certain that the "Katerina" in front of you is indeed the work of the master Leonardo, and it is priceless! "

Following his remarks, everyone immediately became sober, and many people nodded in agreement!

Everyone here has a certain, even very deep artistic accomplishment and attainments, and everyone has been to one of Italy's most important museums, the Uffizi Gallery!

In the Uffizi Gallery, everyone has seen that "Katerina", and naturally knows that Ye Tian's remarks are fine!

After some restlessness, Giovanni nodded excitedly and said:

"Yes, the Uffizi Gallery does have a portrait of "Katerina" in the collection. In that painting, Katerina, who is relatively older, was painted by Katerina when she was in Florence.

At that time, Katerina, after experiencing failure and imprisonment, the whole person seemed much calmer! And Catalina in this portrait is relatively young, and it is the time when she is very beautiful!

Although the characters in the two portraits are of different ages, it is certain that they are the same person! It is Catalina from the Sforza family, she is also known as the lioness of the Sforza family! "

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, everyone laughed, and the situation in front of countless live broadcasters was the same.

While laughing out loud, almost all Italians on the live and broadcast side became more excited. Their eyes looking at this portrait of "Katerina" became even more hot and even burning!

There is no other reason. Catalina is one of the few heroines in Italian history, and her position is the same as that of Joan of Arc in the eyes of the French, irreplaceable!

It is precisely because of the very lofty status of Catalina in Italy, the value of this portrait by Leonardo da Vinci will naturally rise!

When the laughter fell slightly, Ye Tianqinglang's voice immediately came out again.

"In order for everyone to better appreciate this portrait, I think it is necessary to introduce Catalina's life and deeds. After all, not everyone knows this Italian heroine.

Catalina is the illegitimate daughter of Galeazzo Sforza, and Galeazzo is the second Grand Duke of Milan of the Sforza family and Ludovic’s brother, that is to say, Catalina is Lu Dovic's niece.

When she was young, Catalina studied Latin and studied classics at the Milan court, and received the best noble education, but she was more proud of her brave and wary ancestors and learned the ability to lead soldiers and govern the country.

At the age of fourteen, Catalina married Girolamo, the nephew of Pope Sistus IV at the time, and subsequently won the titles of Madame Imola and Countess Forli, and moved to Rome with her husband.

At that time, Rome had not yet become an important art center of the Renaissance. The atmosphere was full of political ingenuity, unscrupulous, and the pursuit of material things far above spirituality. These things happened to be what Catalina was best at.

Catalina, born in a family of mercenaries, like her grandfather and great-grandfather, is full of brave and warlike genes in her bones, and her personality is extroverted and sociable, and she soon integrated into the upper class of Rome!

Due to the favor of Sistus IV, Girolamo became the figure in the real power in Rome, especially the military power, while Catalina became the one who stood behind her husband and made suggestions for him.

In 1484, after the death of Sistus IV, there was a great chaos in the city of Rome and bandits were everywhere. The Palace of Osini, the residence of Girolamo and Catalina, was also looted and destroyed, and Rome fell into anarchy!

More importantly, around the emergence of the new pope, various forces attacked each other in the city of Rome, making this eternal city even more chaotic. In this case, a powerful figure is urgently needed to calm the chaos.

Catalina, who was seven months pregnant at the time, stood up. She mounted her horse and led an army in the name of her husband to capture the fortress of Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome, monitor the Vatican and control the pope’s election.”

Hearing this, there was a burst of exclamation on the live and live broadcast.

"Wow! This is too powerful. Seven months pregnant can lead the battle, and control the election of the new pope, really worthy of a legendary heroine!"

Just as people were amazed, the Bishop of Kent, the representative of the Vatican, couldn't help but blush!

In the era when Catalina crossed Italy, the role played by the Holy See in the Vatican was not very glorious, often appeared in a negative image, and was very incompetent, which is somewhat embarrassing!

Ye Tian looked at this old friend, and then continued:

"Under the high pressure of Catalina's army, the chaos in Rome quickly ended and calmed down, but due to the tremendous pressure she brought, the Vatican Cardinals could not even elect the pope.

In desperation, the Cardinals of the Vatican had no choice but to ask Girolamo, and offered very tempting conditions, asking him to come forward to force his wife to lead the army out of Rome. Girolamo nodded and agreed.

After Catalina received the news, she immediately increased her army quota, preparing for a long-term war of resistance to force the bishops to negotiate with her. The bishops once again pressed Girolamo to take a stand against his wife.

Faced with this situation, Catalina didn't want to become an enemy with her husband, so she could only lead the army out of Castel Sant'Angelo. Only then did the Vatican Cardinals convene a meeting to elect the new pope! "

Hearing this, people who know this history nodded and gave Ye Tian a thumbs up secretly!

Steven this **** is really a monster, it seems that there is nothing he doesn't know, so people can't admire him!

Ye Tian just smiled softly and continued his performance.

"After leading the army back to Forli, because Girolamo refused to restore taxes to the people of Forli, offended the local aristocracy, some of Forli's nobles immediately launched a coup and assassinated Girolamo!

They also captured Katerina and her children, but Katerina escaped wittily. Later, with the help of her uncle Ludovich, Katerina quickly suppressed the rebellion and became the regent of Foley!

During the rule of Foley and Imola, Katrina reduced taxes and greatly reduced expenditures on the people. She also directly participated in the training of the militia. Her goal was to maintain order and peace in the city.

At the same time, she also hoped that the subjects under the rule would appreciate her efforts in this area, and achieved this, won the support and support of the subjects under the rule, and Foley has made great progress in all aspects of strength!

Soon afterwards, the Italian-French War broke out. At the beginning of the Italian-French War, Catalina remained neutral, but secretly all sorts of vertical and horizontal, strengthened her own strength, and maintained the relationship between Milan and the Pope State!

Soon, Catalina ushered in her second marriage, married to Giacomo Feo, who was eight years younger than her. However, in order to ensure the custody and power of the children, this marriage did not public!

It was this ulterior marriage that became a stain that Katarina could not erase in her life. The pampered and spoiled Giacomo Feo quickly forgot about it and became very cruel and unreasonable.

On a public occasion, he even slapped Catalina’s eldest son, Ottaviano, Earl of Forli, but at the scene, no one had the courage to stand up and defend Ottaviano~www. ltnovel.com~The consequence of this incident is that Ottaviano and his brothers united, with the support of many supporters, determined to liberate Foley from the rule of Giacomo, and hacked to death with a knife. Giacomo.

After Giacomo's death, Catalina launched a frantic and **** revenge. Except for not touching her son, all the people who participated in the assassination were either killed by her or imprisoned.

Even the families of these people became the targets of Katerina's revenge. The number of people killed was as high as dozens. The Pope and her uncle Ludovich at the time believed that Katerina's revenge was too intense.

Those who assassinated Giacomo were mostly supporters of Girolamo. Catalina’s irrational and mad revenge behavior made her almost exhausted, and this became the biggest stain in her life.”

"Hey!"

There was a sigh at the same time at the scene and in front of countless live broadcasts, and people felt sorry for Katrina's unfortunate marriage!

At the same time, people listened with gusto and were very fascinated!
