to the chariot races which her
father gave in the great square
of Santa Maria Novella, for the
amusement of the people after the
manner OF ancient Rome.
And among the attendants of
her fathers court there was a
handsome young page whose de-

famous names in history-Maria

Maria who became queen of
France.
The charming child whose grave
brown eyes look straight at you
from Bronzino's beautiful paint

She lived in a splendid palace
in Florence, surrounded by costly

She is just the sort of child

Florentine castle out over the
jewel~like city.
Maria was the eldest of the
eight children of Duke CoSimo I
and his wife, the wealthy Eleanora
of Toledo.
When you look at the rich gold
chain and antique cameo pendant,
the priceless pearls, the heavy
chain girdle on her blue silk

She is a bit overdressed for a girl
