artistic honors bestowed by the Holy RomanEmpire. His works reveal the mind o an artist

deeply infuenced by the new discoveries andnew worlds that came to light during the Age oExploration. This documentary combines origi

nal high-denition ootage o the artists native

Milan and the Habsburg palaces o Vienna andPrague with images o Arcimboldos work as acourt painter, designer o estivals, and chroni-cler o the natural world.
