About this listen
As the Medici transition from bankers to Grand Dukes of Tuscany, the foundations of their power begin to erode. Financial strain, succession crises, court intrigue, and growing political isolation weaken the dynasty from within. While Florence evolves beyond its former patrons, the Medici retreat into ritual and suspicion, culminating in Anna Maria Luisa’s final act to preserve the family’s legacy through the Pact of Family. The dynasty’s twilight approaches, but its imprint on Florence will endure.
