| The Story of Nastagio degli Onesti - Sandro Botticelli (c.1445-1510, Italian) - tempera on panel (in 4 parts, each 83 x ~140 cm) in 1483 - parts 1-3: Museo del Prado (Madrid) - part 4: Palazzo Pucci (Florence) |
The story of Nastaglio of Onesti, a "noble" knight who tortured and killed a woman whom he loved but did not love back, before he married another lady.
Tempera, made by mixing egg-white with colors, is more thick-consistent and lasting.
