Original – A young Lady and a
Unicorn. "In the 7th century, the scholar Isidore of Seville ... helped popularize the myth that would serve as a hallmark in European folklore for centuries to come: Catching a unicorn is impossible…unless you have access to a virgin woman.”
Reason
Domenico Zampieri (or
Domenichino) (1581 –1641) was an Italian
Baroque painter of the
Bolognese School, a rather talented one. This school flourished in Bologna, between the 16th and 17th centuries in Italy, and rivalled Florence and Rome as the center of painting in the
Italian Baroque era. The painting depicts
Giulia Farnese, mistress to Pope Alexander VI.
Rodrigo Borgia (Pope Alexander VI) fell in love with Giulia and decided to make her his mistress. ... Well, so much for that Unicorn.
