Two years later, Vasari works on his vast fresco under pressure from the Medici Duke and edits a new edition of his book with Piero, who is a little distracted by love.

鈥淕iorgio Vasari? Who鈥檚 he?鈥�

Florence, 1570. Giorgio Vasari is the top painter and architect of the day, as well as the official biographer of the pantheon of Renaissance artists.

At the behest of his illustrious patron, the Grand Duke Cosimo de鈥� Medici, Vasari has embarked on his most ambitious project ever: painting the city鈥檚 cathedral dome.

His new assistant, Piero, reminds him of his own young self.
