the borgias ITALIA

“Corella was a captain of foot, a soldier of fortune, who from the earliest days of Cesare’s military career had followed the duke’s fortunes- the very man who is alleged to have strangled Alfonso of Aragon by Cesare’s orders. He is generally assumed to have been a Spaniard, and is commonly designated as Michelotto, or Don Miguel; but Alvisi supposes him, from his name of Corella, to have been a Venetian, and he tells us that by his fidelity to Cesare and the implicit manner in which he executed his master’s orders, he earned - as is notorious- considerable hatred." (Rafael Sabatini, The Life of Cesare Borgia Chapter XII: Lucrezia’s Third Marriage.)

I love working with Holliday, and Sean Harris too. It feels like walking on air really. It just feels so natural and we all connect to one another. (x)

"Pope Alexander VI and his children, especially Cesare, Juan, and Lucrezia, were no different from such dynastic figures of the age as the Riarios, Medicis, Sforzas, Estes, and Gonzagas. But the Borgias remained outsiders, they loathed hypocrisy, and their genius inspired Machiavelli. This is what their enemies have held against them, branding them with the mark of infamy." — Ivan Cloulas, The Borgias
