1) Art is man-made, the opposite of nature which is produced outside the hands of man. The highest achievements of art and culture I think would be to mimic nature through art—creating something that is man-made but is almost perfectly like nature. 2) The dark side of humanity outside of refinement is where art does not exist. The things that are man-made and created by man control our primal instincts and natural behavior. 3) Behaving with pure nature is to do immoral things without reason—since morality and reason are human constructs, which are art and not nature. 4) The man’s headless body was found on the floor of the Palazzo Vecchio in front of the statue of Judith beheading Holophernes; the head: dangling from the window. To the detective, it was apparent that whoever committed the crime had tricked the man into the location since there were no signs of a struggle or the man having died before entering the Palazzo Vecchio—the murderer had to be clever, not strong. The man had a good reputation in Florence and lived in the city with his wife. But with some uncovering of dirty secrets, it was revealed to the detective that the man had a different side to him that was hidden from Florence and the world. The dead man had many secret wives and families—many secret lives spread out across Europe. Not-so-spoiler alert: the Florentine wife did it out of jealousy.
