ARTEMISIA Ravishingly beautiful, this sumptuous romance takes place in seventeenth century Italy, and tells the tale of 17 year old Artemisia, who defies the conventions of her time and pursues her passion for painting. When she meets an arrogant artist who offers to give her lessons, she soon learns that the body is no longer an object which one paints, but a place of desire, suffering and pleasure. Passionate and vibrant, UNTITLED AGNES MERLET PROJECT is a feast for the senses, made even more powerful by the fact that it is based on a true story.
