Painting Description
"The Astrologer Cosimo Ruggieri d.1615 and Catherine de Medici 1519-89" is a historical work by J. Lemard that delves into the intriguing relationship between Catherine de Medici, the influential queen consort of France, and Cosimo Ruggieri, an astrologer and occultist of the late Renaissance period. The book explores the intersection of politics, astrology, and the occult in the French court, particularly focusing on the period when Catherine de Medici wielded significant power as the queen mother and regent for her sons, who were successive kings of France.
Catherine de Medici, born into the powerful Italian Medici family, became queen consort to King Henry II of France and played a pivotal role in the political machinations of the French court during the latter half of the 16th century. Her association with Ruggieri, a reputed astrologer, reflects her interest in astrology and the supernatural, which was not uncommon among European nobility at the time.
Cosimo Ruggieri, whose life intersected with Catherine's during her reign, is said to have served as her advisor and confidant. His influence over Catherine and the decisions she made that affected the course of French history have been a subject of fascination and speculation among historians and enthusiasts of the period.
J. Lemard's work examines the extent of Ruggieri's influence over Catherine, the nature of their consultations, and the impact of their relationship on the events of the time, including the religious conflicts and political intrigues that characterized Catherine's rule. The book aims to shed light on the often-overlooked role of astrology and the occult in shaping the policies and personal lives of historical figures.
This introduction provides a general overview of the themes and historical figures discussed in J. Lemard's "The Astrologer Cosimo Ruggieri d.1615 and Catherine de Medici 1519-89," setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the complex dynamics at play in the French Renaissance court.
