Maria de' Medici (1540–1557)
Maria de'
Medici( April 3, 1540 – November 19, 1557) was the eldest daughter of Cosimo I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany and Eleonora di Toledo.
She was a member of the famous Medici family.
Eleanor of Toledo
Eleanor of Toledo
( Italian:" Eleonora di Toledo"( 11 January 1519 – 17 December 1562), born Doña Leonor Álvarez de Toledo y Osorio, was a Spanish noblewoman who was the wife of Cosimo I de' Medici and the Duchess of Florence.
Although Eleanor is often referred to as the Grand Duchess of Tuscany, she predeceased the creation of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany.
She is credited with being the first modern first lady, or consort.
She served as regent of Florence during the absence of her spouse.
Eleonora di Garzia di Toledo
Eleonora di Garzia di Toledo or Leonor Álvarez de Toledo Osorio
(March 1553 – 10 July 1576), more often known as "Leonora" or "Dianora", was the daughter of García Álvarez de Toledo, 4th Marquis of Villafranca, Duke of Fernandina.
Leonora was born in Florence, where she was brought up by
Cosimo I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany and his wife Eleanor of Toledo, her aunt and namesake.
Betrothed to their son Pietro at the age of 15, she blossomed under the wing of Pietro's older sister, the artistic patron Isabella, into a vivacious and witty beauty.
Her marriage, like Isabella's, was not a success, and she followed her mentor's example of taking lovers.
For this reason, Pietro had her brought in 1576 to the country retreat of Cafaggiolo, where he strangled her to death with a dog leash.
Cosimo's successor, Francesco I, tacitly approved the murder, and Pietro was never brought to justice for it.
Until recently, little was known of Leonora di Garzia di Toledo, and she was not identified as the sitter of several portraits of her.
The facts of her life have emerged from the growing scholarship on Isabella de' Medici, with whom she has much in common.
In the view of art historian Gabrielle Langdon, "Her story is valuable in revealing attitudes and legalities attendant on the lives and decorum of women in the early-modern Italian court".
Isabella de' Medici
Isabella Romola de' Medici( 31 August 1542 – 16 July 1576) was the daughter of Cosimo I de' Medici, first Grand Duke of Tuscany, and Eleonora di Toledo.
She was raised and educated in a humanist manner with her siblings, including Francesco de' Medici who succeeded their father as the Grand Duke of Tuscany.
To secure a relationship with the powerful Roman Orsinis, Isabella's father arranged her marriage to Paolo Giordano I Orsini when she was 16.
She remained in her father's household after her marriage, giving her an unusual degree of independence for a woman of her period.
Following the death of her father, Isabella was probably murdered, with the complicity of her husband and brother, and in retribution for her relationship with Paolo Giordano's cousin Troilo Orsini.
Pietro de' Medici
Don Pietro de' Medici( 3 June 1554 – 25 April 1604) was the youngest son of Cosimo I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany and Eleonora di Toledo.
Early in 1571 he went to Rome and in the spring of 1575 he went to Venice.
In 1571 he married his first cousin Eleonora di Garzia di Toledo, whom he accused of adultery and strangled with a dog leash in July 1576 at the Villa Medici at Cafaggiolo.
He also had her supposed lover Bernardino Antinori imprisoned and killed.
At the end of 1577, he went for the first of many stays at the Spanish court.
He remained in Spain until the end of 1578.
During this visit he gained a reputation as a spendthrift and a rake.
He left Tuscany in October 1579 to bring Italian troops to Spain and lead them during the mission to Portugal.
He stayed in Lisbon until the end of 1582 when he returned to Spain where his presence is documented in 1583 and 1584.
His correspondence proves that he had serious money problems.
He came to Italy in July 1584 to ask his brothers to cover his debts, incurring their disapproval for living with a woman with a questionable reputation.
The Medici court tried to arrange a marriage for Pietro.
In July 1586 he went back to Spain, where he continued to accumulate debts.
He came back to Italy in November 1587 after Francesco I de' Medici's death and stayed until September 1589, when he went back to Spain.
His marriage to Dona Beatriz de Lara, daughter of Manuel de Menezes, the Portuguese Duke of Vila Real, in 1593 did little to stabilize him economically and emotionally.
Pietro continued to see his lover Antonia de Carvajal who gave him five children out of wedlock.
He also had an illegitimate son with Maria della Ribera.
He kept writing to his brother Ferdinando I de' Medici, asking for a portion of the family fortune to cover his debts.
In 1596 he came to Italy to appeal in vain to the Pope to side with him in the controversy.
Pietro died, deeply in debt, before turning 50.
After his death his illegitimate children were all brought to Florence to be cared for by the Medici.
Pietro was buried in the Monasterio de la Santissima Trinidad in Madrid.
His corpse was later brought to Florence by Cosimo II de' Medici.
