"The mother of Pope Clement VII remains an enigmatic figure. Pieraccini cites a record of the Pazzi conspriacy by Antonio da San Gallo in which he wrote that Giuliano had a son, aged one, by the time he was killed in the Pazzi conspiracy in 1478. The mother was ' a woman of the Gorini, his friend. The said Lorenzo went to see him and then gave him to the care of the same Antonio, where he stayed until his seventh year. The said son had the name of Giulio and was born on the 6th March 1478. Seraccini is cited as stating that she was Fioretta di Antonio di Michele di Iacopo del Ciptadino corazzaio. Pieraccini however states that the mother's name was certainly 'Fioretta', but that all else is unknown.
An unpleasant paragraph then follows outlining the importance of knowing who the mother was, owing: ' on the laws of hereditary biology, the knowledge of whether Fioretta was daughter of nobles or plebs must be important, for example, to recognise the inheritance of particular refined talents or dispositions, presumably more developed in the Florentine upper classes than in the lower ones.'  Giulio had himself declared legitimate during Giovanni's cardinalate, saying that his mother had been secretly married to Giuliano. The eighteenth-century Jesuit antiquarian, Giuseppe Richa, in an attempt to ensure the Medici pope's legitimacy to the throne of S. Peter, repeated this claim of a secret marriage. Hibbert follows the Gorini reference, and identifies her as Fioretta Gorini. 'This boy, whose mother soon afterwards died, was adopted by Lorenzo'.  Young identifies her as Antonia Gorini." - Women on the margins: the beloved and the mistress in Renaissance Florence

La Venere di Botticelli e l’uomo che la amò, Giuliano de Medici, furono entrambi vittime di un terribile destino.
Giuliano era il fratello minore di Lorenzo il Magnifico. Colto, intelligente, amante delle lettere e delle belle arti, era ammirato dalle donne per la sua bellezza e amato dal popolo per la sua generosità. Fu durante una giostra che incontrò o meglio rimase folgorato da Simonetta Vespucci.
Simonetta era talmente bella che fu soprannominata la “Senza Paragoni”. Botticelli la dipinse in moltissimi ritratti, ossessionato, rapito dall’incantevole bellezza della ragazza. L'esistenza di Simonetta, purtroppo, fu una vera e propria meteora: l’anno dopo il suo incontro con Giuliano morì di tisi a soli 23 anni. Alla sua morte si racconta che Giuliano sprofondò nella disperazione, scrisse dei versi per ricordare la donna da lui amata e chiese ai suoi amici di fare altrettanto. Inconsolabile nel suo dolore si recò a casa del suocero di Simonetta per chiedere di averne il ritratto.
Non ebbe però il tempo per sopravvivere al dolore della scomparsa di Simonetta. Una congiura ordita dalla famiglia dei Pazzi, ricchi banchieri fiorentini che odiavano i Medici e il potere che esercitavano su Firenze, mise fine alla sua vita. Nella chiesa di Santa Maria del Fiore, durante la celebrazione della messa, Bandini e Francesco Pazzi estrassero i pugnali e si avventarono su Giuliano colpendolo ripetutamente finché il giovane non cadde stremato nella pozza del suo stesso sangue, un omicidio che per brutalità ricorda quello inflitto a Giulio Cesare. Lorenzo invece riuscì a scappare rifugiandosi nella Sagrestia.
Dopo i funerali del fratello, dove si racconta che l’intera città ne pianse la morte, Lorenzo mise in atto la sua vendetta. Poche ore dopo il corpo di Jacopo de Pazzi pendeva da Palazzo Vecchio. I congiurati furono catturati, linciati e impiccati e i loro corpi gettati nell’Arno. Per una strana ironia del destino Giuliano morì nello stesso giorno in cui, due anni prima, si era spenta la sua adorata Simonetta.

"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"
