@17thCenturyLady Thank you for this stunning review, it’s a privilege to tell COSTANZA’s story, she was phenomenal. This was my first foray into the 17 century - what a time of profound change - I was gripped and love your account which keeps bringing me new aspects of the period 🧡💫🍊

Screenshots. If this helps only one person, I'll be satisfied. You're welcome ❤️
