Savonarola was tried, convicted of heresy (1498), and hanged and burned in 1498. On the day of his execution he was taken out to the Piazza della Signoria along with Fra Silvestro and Fra Domenico da Pescia.

How was Savonarola tortured?

Savonarola was raised off his feet three times during his week of torture — at times when his interrogators believed that he was being less than revealing in answering their questions. On one other occasion, they raised his arms with the rope without him leaving his feet. Even this must have hurt.

Did Savonarola walk through fire?

Savonarola hinted at performing miracles to prove his divine mission, but when a rival Franciscan preacher proposed to test that mission by walking through fire, he lost control of public discourse.

Is Savonarola a martyr?

Girolamo Savonarola, (born September 21, 1452, Ferrara, duchy of Ferrara [Italy]—died May 23, 1498, Florence), Italian Christian preacher, reformer, and martyr, renowned for his clash with tyrannical rulers and corrupt clergy.

Did Savonarola forgive Lorenzo?

When Lorenzo died in 1492, Savonarola forgave him on his deathbed.

Did Botticelli burn his paintings?

Swayed by Savonarola’s conservative religious message, Botticelli burned many of his own paintings, especially his earlier more secular works.

Who overthrew the Medici family?

Girolamo Savonarola
In declining health for some three years, Lorenzo died on April 9, 1492, at age 43. While on his deathbed, he was visited by Girolamo Savonarola, a Christian preacher and reformer who would overthrow Medici rule in Florence two years later.

What happened to Lorenzo Medici son Piero?

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 the Battle of Garigliano, which the French (with whom he was allied) had lost.

Did Piero betray Lorenzo?

Assuming the mantle of family power from Lorenzo, Piero alienated the people of Florence by siding with the French. Because of this act, considered a betrayal, the Medici had to flee Florence (1494).
