'Stemma Of The Pitti Family' by Andrea Della Robbia (Circa 1490) In the 15th century, Florence was a city of immense wealth and influence, thanks in no small part to the Pitti family's prominent position. This ascendancy owed much to the close bond between Luca di Bonaccorso Pitti, born in 1395, and Cosimo de' Medici, who reigned from 1389 to 1464. Luca's loyalty to Cosimo, combined with his shrewd business acumen, led to his appointment as Gonfalonier of Justice by Cosimo in 1458.This partnership between two of Florence's most influential families bore fruit in the form of the magnificent Palazzo Pitti, a sprawling private residence that still graces the cityscape today. It has transformed into one of Italy's most esteemed museums over the centuries. The Palazzo's facade, adorned with ornate stemmi, or coats of arms, serves as a tangible testament to the immense power these aristocratic clans wielded.These stemmi were crafted from glazed terracotta, a remarkably resilient material pioneered by Luca della Robbia, uncle to the famed sculptor Andrea della Robbia. They were prominently displayed on the facades of civic structures, private homes, and the courtyards of Tuscan patricians.The specific stemma in question exhibits distinct Tuscan characteristics, its shield-like shape emblematic of the late works of Andrea and pervasive in Giovanni's creations. Its size suggests it was likely situated above a doorway within one of the private Pitti residences, possibly encircled by a decorative wreath of terracotta vegetation, showcasing the artistry and opulence of the era.
