Image:Agnolo Bronzino, ritratto di Lucrezia de' Medici.JPG Lucrezia de' Medici was the name for several women from the Medici family:
- Lucrezia di Piero de' Medici (1447 - 1493, best known as Nannina de' Medici.
- Lucrezia di Lorenzo de' Medici (August 4, 1470 - between november 10 and 15 1550), the elder daughter of Lorenzo de' Medici and Clarice Orsini, and the grandmother of Pope Leo XI. In 1485 she married to Jacopo Salviati. She was mother to cardinal Giovanni Salviati.
- Lucrezia di Cosimo de' Medici (June 7 1544 – 1562), the daughter of Cosimo I de' Medici and Eleonora di Toledo. She married to Alfonso II d'Este, Duke of Modena and Ferrara, in 1558. She moved to Ferrara only two years later: his sudden death spurred rumours that she was poisoned. Experts claim she is the Duchess referred to in Robert Browning's poem My Last Duchess.
- Lucrezia di Francesco de' Medici (November 7 1572 - April 14 1574), the daughter of Francesco I de' Medici and Johanna of Austria. She died as an infant.
