Documentary filmmaker Jake Gorst will discuss the “Corsi: The World’s First Super Model” documentary film project at the Oliver Wolcott Library, Litchfield, Connecticut.

Antonio Corsi was said to have the most famous face in the world. He inspired legendary works of art that are still loved by millions.

Corsi elevated modeling to a serious profession, but his story is presently missing from the art history books. Even though his likeness is found in cathedrals, government buildings, museums and public spaces globally, very few experts are aware of the connection between these great works of art.
