In the halls of the Uffizi Gallery, the great Venetian Palaces, or among the naves of the most important churches in Rome, Renaissance artworks conceal countless faces, hidden in plain sight: those of African and Afro-descendant characters. Who were they? Where did they come from? Why were they portrayed, and why did they remain unobserved until these days? The Black Italian Renaissance discovers the stories of these mysterious characters' showing a whole new side of the Renaissance: a complex, multi-ethnic era, layered in many different social classes.
