About Giuliano de' Medici
"Giuliano de' Medici (1453 – April 26, 1478) was the second son of Piero de' Medici (the Gouty). As co-ruler of Florence, with his brother Lorenzo the Magnificent, he complemented his brother's image as the "patron of the arts" with his own image as the handsome "sporting golden boy."
As the opening stroke of the Pazzi Conspiracy, he was assassinated in the Duomo of Florence, Santa Maria del Fiore, by Francesco de' Pazzi and Bernardo Bandini. He was stabbed 19 times and was said to have died instantly.
Giulio di Giuliano de' Medici, Giuliano's illegitimate son by his mistress Fioretta Gorini, went on to become Pope Clement VII.
He is buried with his brother Lorenzo in the Medici Chapel of the Church of San Lorenzo; their tomb is ornamented with the Madonna and Child of Michelangelo."
