Overall: Offline sources taken AGF. I enjoyed this article - thank you. It's fascinating to see how that picture could be a metaphor for vertu in the days of Vasari and Buonarotti, while today's audience would just want to ask, "But why doesn't she just ... ?" I guess the Renaissance greats lived in the clouds and we today are just too jolly mortal. Anyway, you've answered that question clearly, well done, it's good to go.
