Puccio Pucci (politician)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Puccio Pucci (Florence, 1 September 1389 – 7 May 1449) was a Florentine politician and the founder of the main branch of the Pucci family.[1] Pucci served as magistrate in the Florentine wars against Lucca, Milan, and Volterra.[2]

His oldest son, Antonio Pucci [it] (1418-1484) was elected as the gonfaloniere di giustizia in 1463 and again in 1481; this role was nominal head of the Florentine government.[2]
