Скачать или смотреть The Visconti: How Milan's Dark Rulers Shaped Renaissance Italy: The History Documentary

Step into the world of medieval and Renaissance Milan to uncover the story of the Visconti — a dynasty whose ambition, intelligence, and ruthlessness reshaped Italy’s destiny. From Ottone Visconti’s violent rise to power and Gian Galeazzo’s imperial dreams, to the dynasty’s cultural patronage and eventual downfall, this documentary traces how a single family turned Milan into a center of art, architecture, and political intrigue.

Explore the construction of the Duomo, the turbulent creation of the Ambrosian Republic, and the emergence of the Sforza who inherited both the Visconti’s glory and their shadows. Through vivid storytelling, historical research, and stunning visuals, this film examines how the Visconti transformed chaos into empire — and how their mark still lingers in the streets and symbols of modern Milan.
