About this book
The Story of Milan is a book by Ella Noyes. The contents list names, among others, chapters titled The Ambrosian City, The Patarini, The Free City, The Reign of Faction and The Visconti. The text says the younger Beatrice da Este came to Milan at fifteen to be the Moro’s bride.
The text names the viol player Jacopo di San Secondo, whose strains were able to soothe the Moro in moments of fever and pain. The text says The Portrait of a Young Woman (157) is ascribed to Piero dei Franceschi, but Verrocchio and Antonio Pollajuolo have also been suggested as the author. The text says the fortunes of Italy were now, in fact, in the hands of the great military adventurers.
