Renaissance Woman Restored

Follow the restoration of a magnificent canvas created by a 16th century nun who is considered to be the first great woman artist of the Renaissance. Plautilla Nelli painted a depiction of The Last Supper in the mid-1500s. It remained largely unnoticed and deteriorating for centuries, and was rescued by Hoosier philanthropist Jane Fortune.
