Lucrezia Borgia

Lucrezia Borgia was born at Subiaco on April 18th, 1480. Her mother was Vanozza dei Cattanei and her father Rodrigo Borgia, who was later known as Pope Alexander VI. She was married three times for her family's political advantage and had eight children. As Duchess of Ferrara, Lucrezia became a patron of the arts and an entrepreneur. She bought around 20,000ha of seemingly worthless swampland which she had drained and had henceforth used to grow grain, beans and flax. It is often suggested that Lucrezia and her brother Cesare may have had an incestuous relationship. Lucrezia died aged 39 in Ferrara on 24 June 1519 from complications after giving birth to a daughter. She was buried in the convent of Corpus Domini.

Sarah Bradford (2004), Monica Bellonci (2002) and Ferdinand Gregorovius (1875) have written the most popular biographies on Lucrezia Borgia. She also inspired many novels and was portrayed in many movies and television series based on her family's rise and fall. For instance most recently:

The Borgias (TV, 2011) played by Holliday Grainger
Borgia (TV, 2011) played by Isolda Dychauk
Los Borgia (Movie, 2006) played by Maria Valverde
The Borgias (TV, 1981) played by Anne Louise Lambert

History-wise yes.. also in the show, I guess.. scandal cause everyone in that family was, and mostly her with the divorce and bastard child and stuff. Envy? well.. I guess people envied their status.

Yeah, I mean the scandal part is pretty clear.. first the Giovanni divorce and then Giovanni JR coming out of nowhere.. and then Giovanni SR getting murdered by her brother.. and then Paolo and then Juan getting killed by her same brother and then the siblings relationship it self..

I think he was somewhat proud of her in that moment. I mean, he thought that she deserved everything good in this world.

I did, Sara.
