[m-o-ustafa92]

لوكريزيا تورنابوني، هي إمرأة نبيلة إيطالية وزوجة بييرو دي كوزيمو دي ميديشي (اللورد الفعلي لفلورنس)، وهي مستشارة سياسية، وواحدة من أقوى النساء في العصر. ولدت عام ١٤٢٧. كان للوكريزيا تأثير سياسي كبير خلال حكم زوجها ثم ابنها لورنزو العظيم، حيث استثمرت في العديد من المؤسسات وقامت بتحسين العلاقات لدعم احتياجات الفقراء. كانت أيضاً راعيةً للفنون، فقد كتبت العديد من القصائد والمسرحيات.

هنا نرى صدرها فما فوق مرسوماً على خلفية داكنة زرقاء اللون، تحدق إلى يسارنا. تم رسم ذراعيها كما لو كانت مستريحة على ركبتيها. يتميز وجهها الذي نراه من منظور جانبي تقريباً بعيون بنية فاتحة مرتخية تحت حواجب منحنية، وأنف منحدر، وذقن مدبب، وشفاه رقيقة وردية فاتحة مغلقة بلطف. شعرها مشدود للخلف بعناية ويغطيه غطاء رأس أبيض، فوقه حجاب أبيض عاجي شفاف يلف على جبهتها وجوانب وجهها. يبرز الشريط الرمادي الفحمي الحجاب، والذي يمتد من خدها إلى مؤخرة رأسها. ترتدي فستاناً مع مشد وأكمام ��وداء. حجابٌ ثانٍ يغطي صدرها وكتفيها، وتحته بقعة من اللون الأحمر العنابي ظاهرة من خلال أربطة الفستان.

Lucrezia Tornabuoni (22 June 1427 – 25 March 1482) was an influential Italian political adviser and author during the 15th century. She was a member of one of the most powerful Italian families of the time and married Piero di Cosimo de' Medici, de facto Lord of Florence. Lucrezia had significant political influence during the rule of her husband and then of her son Lorenzo the Magnificent, investing in several institutions and improving relationships to support the needs of the poor. She was a patron of the arts who wrote several poems and plays.

I don’t know if I have mommy issues, like my relationship with my mother is complicated (not all of it trough her fault), but it sure as hell seems like that from my preferences for characters that make me shout MOTHER.

"The Medici were not loved; they were feared. The assassins aimed at the fear factor, hoping that the Florentines would conclude that they were not invincible and would flock to the Pazzi banner. Their mistake was to underestimate the raw courage of Lorenzo, who survived their attack, and to kill Giuliano, who might have been able to lead a successful defense." - Paul Strathern, "The Medici: Power, Money, and Ambition in the Italian Renaissance"

The assassination of Giuliano de' Medici was mentioned in several primary sources from the time period, including contemporary chronicles and letters. One of the most important primary sources is the "Diary of Luca Landucci," a Florentine wool merchant who witnessed the events of the Pazzi conspiracy and recorded them in his diary. Landucci's diary provides a detailed and vivid account of the conspiracy and the events leading up to the assassination of Giuliano de' Medici.

Other primary sources that mention the assassination of Giuliano de' Medici include the letters of the Medici family, particularly those of Lorenzo de' Medici and his mother, Lucrezia Tornabuoni. These letters provide insights into the personal reactions of the Medici family to the events of the conspiracy and the death of Giuliano.

It was also a significant event in the history of Florence, as it marked the beginning of a period of political instability and violence known as the "War of the Eight Saints." In the aftermath of the conspiracy, the Medici family consolidated their power and launched a ruthless campaign of revenge against their enemies, which included the execution of many of the conspirators and their supporters.

"The Pazzi conspiracy was a daring and ambitious plot that ultimately failed, but not before claiming the life of one of Florence's most beloved sons. Giuliano de' Medici was a true Renaissance prince, cultured, handsome, and beloved by all who knew him. His death was a tragedy for Florence and a blow to the cause of humanism and progress in Italy." - Christopher Hibbert, "The House of Medici: Its Rise and Fall"
