At 18 Benvenuto progressing rapidly when he falls in love with the very young Della Santini; at feart, being deliberately impassioned by the very young girl, he thinks that it is love. But the girl's mother frouna on this youthful infatuation. And Ben venuto finds himself Bery much fascinated by the Lady Gismonde, who gives him an order to design a pair of candlesticks. Her patroness causes many jealousies among Benvenuto's fellow crafts
