  • Summary

  • At the dawn of the 16th century, Leonardo Da Vinci found himself tied by patronage to Cesare Borgia. It’s a tumultuous time as Leonardo turns his attention to weaponry, and he changes the future of map drawing with his birds-eye-view detail for The Map of Imola. Plus, he begins work on the Mona Lisa, so we look at the real life of the woman who is front and centre in that infamous painting and talk to the actress tasked with bringing her to life on screen. Guests include Aidan Turner (Leonardo), Matilda De Angelis (Caterina), Max Bennett (Cesare Borgia), Maria Vera Ratti (Lisa del Giocondo / The Mona Lisa), Martin Clayton (Head of Prints and Drawings at Royal Collection Trust), Frank Spotnitz (co-creator/writer) and Steve Thompson (co-creator/writer).
