Excerpt from The Romance of Sandro Botticelli Woven From His Paintings
He who would write the account of a Tuscan of the Quattrocento will find that there are two just courses open to him: he may compile a scientific record of bare facts and contemporary references, without a word of comment, or else he may tell his story in the guise of fiction.
