## Executive Summary & Cultural Positioning

Arte is a 2020 animated television series set in 16th century Florence, Italy, during the Renaissance era. The story follows a young woman named Arte who is born into an aristocratic family and aspires to become an artist.

Arte eventually finds an apprenticeship in a painting studio owned by a strict artist named Leo, who prioritizes professional ability over gender.
