Sky Arte documentary explores Leonardo and Verrocchio's bond

A Sky Arte original documentary, produced by Ballandi Arts, delves into the relationship between Andrea del Verrocchio and his pupil Leonardo da Vinci. It airs on March 31 on the satellite channel and is tied to the exhibition "Leonardo e Verrocchio" at Florence's Palazzo Strozzi and Museo del Bargello. The film, part of the 500th anniversary of Leonardo's death, features a short clip within the exhibition. It reconstructs Verrocchio's Renaissance workshop, its internal dynamics, techniques, and commissions from 1460 to 1490, highlighting apprentices including Perugino, Ghirlandaio, Lorenzo di Credi, and Leonardo. The documentary follows the arrival of works, setup, and crate openings at both venues.
