TWO FACES OF THE ITALIAN RENAISSANCE:
LORENZO DE' MEDICI AND GIROLAMO SAVONAROLA

Renaissance man and condemn Girolamo
Savonarola as a freakish throwback to the worst

love affair with Lorenzo, a good case can be
made that Savonarola had a greater impact on
art, politics, and history in the Renaissance.
