	Piero di Lorenzo de' Medici - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Piero de' Medici (the Unfortunate) (February 15, 1471 – December 28, 1503), the untalented, arrogant and undisciplined oldest son of Lorenzo de' Medici (the Magnificent), and brother of Pope Leo X.
		Piero attempted a resistance, but did not receive much support from Florence, which was suffering from the influence of Savonarola; even his cousins deserted to Charles.
		Some years later, in 1503, as the French and Spanish continued their struggle in Italy over the Kingdom of Naples, Piero was drowned in the Garigliano River, while attempting to flee the aftermath of a battle which the French (with whom he was allied) had lost.

	Three Worlds of Michelangelo
		Piero's chancellor, the severe and humorless Piero Dovizi da Bibbiena, who had earlier served Lorenzo, responded on behalf of his benefactor, suggesting that Michelangelo must have lost his mind.
		Predictably, Piero de' Medici paid no heed to the warning transmitted by Michelangelo, just as his brother Cardinal Giovanni's advice shortly after their father's death to be "beneficent, liberal, affable, and humane" fell on deaf ears.
		Piero was never again to return to Florence--a bitter confirmation of the accuracy of Michelangelo's vision.

	Michelangelo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (March 6, 1475 – February 18, 1564), commonly known as Michelangelo, was an Italian Renaissance sculptor, painter, architect and poet.
		While he made few forays beyond the arts, his artistic versatility was of such a high order that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man, along with his rival and fellow Florentine Leonardo da Vinci.
		His father, Lodovico di Leonardo di Buonarotti di Simoni, was the resident magistrate in Caprese and podestà of Chiusi.

		Thomas was born on 31 May 1853 at Florence, Italy, son of Lodovico Fiaschi, a professor of mathematics at the University of Florence, and his English-born wife Clarissa, née Fisher, who had tutored the children of Prince Corsini of Florence.
		His second son Piero, born on 5 March 1879 at Windsor, went to the United States, where he graduated from the New York College of Dentistry in 1903 and M.D. in 1905 from Columbia University; in 1906 he qualified M.R.C.S. (England) and L.R.C.P. (London) and next year returned to practise in Sydney.
		Piero was intensely fond and proud of his father, and like him the subject of many anecdotes.

	Ornellaia
		But in the case of Ornellaia this is especially true, as the winery was founded by Lodovico Antinori, whose aunt Clarice della Gherardesca married Marchese Mario.
		To Lodovico the opportunities offered by the marshy Tuscan coastland known as Maremma, once valued by nobody save for a few lonely head of grazing cattle, might have been irresistible, having seen the success that his brother had achieved.
		Lodovico developed and nurtured the estate for over a decade, and in November 1999 took on Mondavi of California as minority shareholders.

		For those who long to dedicate themselves to the masterpieces of Piero della Francesca in this town, we suggest starting the visit from the upper side of the town, that is from the Medici’s Fortress by the Prato, commanding a view of the Casentino and on the gothic apse of the majestic Cathedral.
		But the most important building is the close Church of St Francesco, where Piero painted a series of frescoes in 14 years of work: the Legend of the Cross ("Leggenda della Croce") is a sym-phony of colours.

		Piero Antinori was certainly aware of them, however; he had to be.
		Lodovico's flagship Cabernet; Merlot blend, Ornellaia, has long since achieved cult status, as well as a more-than-respectable bottle price of approximately $75, while the all-Merlot Masseto, from the estate's oldest section of vines, is tickling $170.
		What prosperity and growing demand have meant to Lodovico Antinori, and to other ambitious winery owners in Tuscany, is a chance to take the next step up the ladder into the quality stratosphere.

	Famous Super Tuscans from Italian Wine Merchants
		This tradition is the foundation of Piero's success and is applied in all his efforts.
		Piero's goal was not to recreate a Bordeaux style claret, but to show the versatility and finesse that the noble Sangiovese can deliver; the result was the second official Super Tuscan, which featured this native varietal in the Cabernet-aided blend.
		The golden child of Piero Antinori and esteemed enologist Giacomo Tachis, whose magic touch has graced Italy's most elite Super Tuscans (including Sassicaia, Tignanello, Sammarco, and Argiano), the wine started in 1978 as a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc and grew in 1982 to include Sangiovese.

	leomike
		In the same year, 1452, Ser Piero was hurriedly married off by his family, to prevent any further follies; a girl of good family, Albiera di Giovanni Amadori, was to console him for the spoiling of his romance.
		The blood was, at all events, not good enough for marriage with Ser Piero; some years later Leonardo's unwedded mother closed her short romance by marriage with a plain countryman of Vinci, Piero di Vacca di Accattbriga.
		Nevertheless, it was probably either that "good blood," or the exultant animal joy with which two young people in the prime of their vigour had come together, that brought to this family of lawyers, which went on producing notaries thereafter, the miracle of Leonardo's birth.

	SCHEDA STORICO ARTISTICA
		Some years before it was detached, however, Francesco Gherardi Dragomanni, worthy and erudite citizen of Sansepolcro, was able to read and transcribe the entire inscription that he found at the foot of the figure of the Saint and which, in all probability, was an integral part of the work conceived by the maestro of Sansepolcro.
		Pietro Farulli, for example, writing at the beginning of the XVIII century, recalled with pride that "Piero painted a Resurrection in Palazzo dei Priori and a Saint Ludovico in the Palazzo of the Commissioner, that are among his most prized creatons.
		Its colors, which originally must have been the bright constituent elements of a dynamic interaction of lights and darks, are utterly flat and lusterless, and the surface presents a number of large repainted areas.

		Piero della Francesca is one of the protagonists of this exhibition and it is worth pausing over the circumstances surrounding his arrival in Florence.
		Piero is so often seen as exceptional—not simply in terms of his artistic and intellectual stature but for his cultural itinerary—that it is easy to overlook the fact that his initial provincial training and subsequent refashioning in Florence was not unique.
		Piero's art, in other words, gives only a very partial view of Renaissance taste in Urbino; in evaluating the art of Boccati, Giovanni Angelo—and Fra Carnevale—we must remove the blinders of modern taste: Tunnel vision has no place here.

	History of Florence, by Niccolo Machiavelli (chapter57)
		During the siege, Lodovico had sent troops to Pontremoli, as if with an intention of assisting the Florentines; but having secret correspondence in Genoa, a party was raised there, who, by the aid of these forces, gave the city to the duke of Milan.
		The conspirators trusted her, and permitted her to enter; but as soon as she was within, she threatened them with death and every kind of torture in revenge for the murder of her husband; and upon their menacing her with the death of her children, she said she had the means of getting more.
		In his commercial affairs he was very unfortunate, from the improper conduct of his agents, who in all their proceedings assumed the deportment of princes rather than of private persons; so that in many places, much of his property was wasted, and he had to be relieved by his country with large sums of money.

	Interview with Piero Antinori
		In the early 1970s Piero Antinori (whose family has been making wine for more than 600 years) crafted the first Super Tuscan wine dubbed, Tignanello.
		Though Piero Antinori jokes that "sangiovese is part of our DNA in Tuscany," he chose to add cabernet sauvignon to sangiovese and use innovative winemaking techniques for the time (like aging wine in small French oak barrels) to create a new type of wine.
		Lodovico Antinori, Piero's brother, followed suit with another cabernet sauvignon-based wine, Ornellaia, in the mid-1980s.

		Around the turn of the 16th century, the state of Florence was in turmoil; the Medici leadership was deposed and the government was in flux.

		Piero was the teacher of Pacioli, a fellow townsman, and Pacioli influenced Leonardo's interests in geometry and proportions, among others, while they resided at the court of Lodovico Sforza in Milan.
		Piero was primarily a painter who nevertheless delved extensively into mathematics (he wrote a treatise on commercial mathematics) and used theoretical mathematics as an integral part of his painting, as can be seen in the intricate mathematical construction and symbolism of The Flagellation (link).
		Moreover, a study of mathematical issues in the context of the rich culture of the Renaissance, a culture characterized by an interweaving of numerous disciplines, would prove that the mathematical discourse can serve as a tool for learning across the curriculum.
