<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"O that fine octagonal face of his--the great dark thoughtful eyes--the straight broad nose pointed at its low tip--the wide firm mouth with its full lower lip, curbed by the very thin bow of the upper--the very square strong jaw--the expression insolent because modest, imperious because shy, --but a face which could smile. And O the robust and generous young form, noble and opulent in contour--the ardent force restrained of him. To me, from the beginning, he was something apart, an individual whom one must either abhor, or adore--nothing else--and, as I saw him close for the first time, staring at him quite unreservedly, I knew what my feelings were."</p><p>Here, presented for the first time in paperback format, is Amico di Sandro, the unfinished novel by Frederick Rolfe, a.k.a. Baron Corvo, dealing with the rambunctious life of Sandro Botticelli.</p><p>An eccentric tale of art and Renaissance times for the connoisseur.</p>
