Their story
Anna Maria Luisa de' Medici, born in Florence on August 11, 1667, was a significant figure of the House of Medici. As the last of her direct line, she held the title of Governor of Siena, demonstrating her official capacity within the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. Her life spanned a period of profound change in European history and marked the twilight of her illustrious family's political dominance. She is perhaps best remembered for her foresight and generosity in bequeathing the Medici art collections to the Tuscan state upon her death. Anna Maria Luisa de’ Medici passed away in her native Florence on February 18, 1743, ensuring her family's cultural legacy endured for future generations.
