The Florentine Nativity
A Christmas allegory.
Vittore Dorezzi is a renaissance painter whose studio becomes the centre of a struggle between his patron, Federigo, and Federigo’s pregnant niece, Anna. A surviving child of hers would disinherit her uncle; his patronage would stop. When the child is born on his premises, Vittore has a difficult decision to make.
