cosimo teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı
- orig. Cosimo de' Medici born June 12, 1519 died April 21, 1574, Castello, near Florence Second duke of Florence (1537-74) and first grand duke of Tuscany (1569-74). The son of Giovanni de' Medici, Cosimo became head of the Florentine republic in 1537 after the assassination of his distant cousin Alessandro de' Medici. He continued Alessandro's tyrannical rule and defeated attempts to oust him with aid from Emperor Charles V. Seeking to expand his power, he attacked Siena in 1554 and brought nearly all of Tuscany under his control. He used his despotic power to improve the government's efficiency and to sponsor artistic projects. Far advanced for the time as an administrator, he united all public services into one building, the Uffizi ("Offices"), designed by Giorgio Vasari. He promoted the talents of such artists as Il Bronzino and Bartolommeo Ammannati, sponsored archaeological excavations of Etruscan sites, and established the Florentine Academy for linguistic studies. In 1569 he was given the title of grand duke of Tuscany. Agnolo di Cosimo Cosimo I Cosimo de' Medici Medici Cosimo de' Cosimo the Elder Piero di Cosimo Tura Cosimo

- Cosimo de' Medici
- known as Cosimo the Elder born Sept. 27, 1389, Florence died Aug. 1, 1464, Careggi, near Florence Founder of one of the main lines of the Medici family. The son of the Florentine banker Giovanni di Bicci de'Medici (1360-1429), Cosimo represented the Medici bank and handled papal finances, becoming the wealthiest man of his time. Another leading family, the Albizzi, had him imprisoned (1433) and tried to assassinate him, but a year later the Medici regained power in Florence, and Cosimo triumphantly returned. He was the architect of the Peace of Lodi (1454). An alliance with the Sforzas of Milan provided him with troops to crush a coup d'état in 1458, after which he created a Senate composed of 100 loyal supporters (the Cento). He was a patron of scholarship and the arts, including such figures as Donatello and Filippo Brunelleschi

- Piero di Cosimo
- orig. Piero di Lorenzo born 1462, Florence, Republic of Florence died 1521, Florence Italian painter. His name derives from that of his master, Cosimo Rosselli, whom he assisted on frescoes for the Sistine Chapel. His later mythological paintings exhibit a bizarre Romantic style. Many are filled with fantastic hybrid human-animal forms engaging in revels (The Discovery of Honey, 1500) or fights (Battle of the Centaurs and the Lapiths, 1500). His art reflects his eccentric personality. He belonged to no school of painting but borrowed from many artists, including Sandro Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci
