About this person

Lucrezia Borgia was born 18 April 1480, the illegitimate daughter of Pope Alexander VI and Vannozza dei Cattanei. Her family used her as a bargaining chip: she was married to Giovanni Sforza, Lord of Pesaro, then to Alfonso of Aragon, Duke of Bisceglie and illegitimate son of the King of Naples, and finally to Alfonso I d'Este, Duke of Ferrara. She served as governor of Spoleto. Tradition holds that her brother Cesare may have had her second husband murdered once his political value faded. She died 24 June 1519, but the notorious tales about the Borgias outlasted her, casting Lucrezia as a femme fatale in artworks, novels, and films for centuries after.
