Rosetta d'Abruzzo

La Contessa Rosetta Brunetti Bugatti d'Abruzzo is the young goddaughter of the old Duke of Florence.

Biography
The prize for winning the Florence young artist competition was to paint La Contessa. This was won by Tomaso Gherardini. (Angels and Cherubs)

When La Contessa came to Verrocchio's workshop, Tom's mind was not on the job due to the arrival of her mother. Therefore, she was easily perturbed and shouted at La Contessa when she tapped her feet. La Contessa was going to leave but Verrocchio convinced her to stay, promising to buy her an ice cream. Tom later apologised for her poor timekeeping, although her portrait was "not bad" according to Verroccio. (Lost and Found)

Personality
La Contessa appeared to be quite spoilt and and, being a countess was extremely pampered, snobbish and was appalled that an artist would dare to raise their voice at her. She was however, like all children, happy to play with her dolls and liked ice cream.
