Catherine De Medici - The Black Legend: Catherine de' Medici was born in Florence on 13 April 1519 and died in Blois at 5 January 1589. As wife of Henri II Of France, she was Queen Consort of France from 1547 to 1559.
Catherine’s name is linked to the religious wars that were fought in France during the years of her reign.
An evil aura shrouded her figure in French historiography up to the end of the 19th century: Catherine is said to have been cold, jealous, vindictive, greedy for power and ready to do anything to achieve her ends.
However, contemporary historians agree that Catherine de' Medici was one of the greatest sovereigns of France. Although she was not without fault, she attempted to implement a policy of reconciliation between Catholics and Protestants, motivated primarily by a desire to ensure the perpetuity of the Valois dynasty.
Her role in the Saint Bartholomew's night massacre, however, still contributes to making her a controversial figure today.
