'Young Queens' tells the story of three women who would become some of the most powerful figures in Renaissance Europe. But at what cost? Sixteenth-century Europe: Renaissance masters paint the ceilings of Florentine churches, kings battle for control of the Continent, and the Reformation forever changes the religious organisation of society. Amidst it all, three young women come of age and into power in an era of empires and revolutions.
