Caterina
Caterina was the mother of Leonardo da Vinci, a fact that remained largely obscured until recent historical research uncovered her identity as a Circassian slave. This revelation adds depth to Leonardo's biographical narrative, illustrating the complexities of his parentage and the socio-political dynamics of 15th-century Florence. Caterina's life and her relationship with Leonardo's father, Piero da Vinci, provide crucial insights into the artist's early influences and background.
