“Piero della Francesca – A Pioneer of the Renaissance” explores the life and work of the enigmatic universal genius (1422-1492), who was considered the “King of Painting” between Michelangelo, Raphael and Leonardo. His masterful control of perspective and proportion revolutionized art and later inspired generations of artists.
The film takes us on a visual journey through the “Terre di Piero” in Tuscany, Umbria and Le Marche, exploring the mysteries of the paintings with scientists and locals and bringing Piero’s world to life by linking past and present.
