His works reveal the mind of an artist deeply influenced by the new discoveries and new worlds that came to light during the Age of Exploration. is documentary combines original high definition footage of the artist s native Milan and the Habsburg palaces of Vienna and Prague with images of Arcimboldo s work as a court painter, designer of festivals, and chronicler of the natural world.
