Wow! The way you always modernize men. They look so handsome 👍 I am sure you do a good job on women, but being a woman I would notice the features on men better.

[@paulcooper8818]

Out of curiosity I used to come for the recreations, but now I enjoy the history lessons just as much

[@virginiatyree6705]

Same! v

[@dopaminedreams1122]

Same lmao, same with tasting history, use to just skip to the recipe and taste testing, now I LOVE the history parts even more

[@jessicamoran8962]

Love the history lesson!

[@justanotherhumanbean5876]

You should also consider doing Simonetta Vespuci the muse of artist Sandro botecelli- she stared in many of his paintings like Venus and Mars and The birth of Venus. She was upholded to be the most beautiful woman in italy during the Renaissance era. She was also famously theorized to be Giulios lover

[@TuckerSP2011]

Wonderful! I went to Florence in 1983. I never wanted to leave, it is a place full of art and beauty. Lorenzo's spirit is still there. I saw many young men who resembled men shown in the paintings of Botticelli. You did a great job. In your depiction he looks a little like Deniro.

[@ellaella2885]

So very true ,I couldn’t say it better

[@DeuDeoEgo]

Well, Florence too is turning into the UK now, you are more likely to see North Africans and Banglas looking like Mo'.

[@garyneilson3075]

I found Lorenzo to be the most fascinating man in history when young and nothing has changed in my 76 years

[@janihafez5511]

Italian stallions ❤

[@AnnieNelson-m4j]

I've always found the Medici's fascinating. Lorenzo's passion for the arts, etc, was responsible for the nurturing of Michaelangelo...the world still revels in Lorenzo's brilliance, and the stunning works of Michaelangelo. Any chance you'll do a video on Michaelangelo Buonnaroti? On another note, these, IMHO, are the finest recreations you've done!

[@nickim6571]

They're both very handsome, especially in the modern versions.

[@jacquimg2469]

Fascinating. I never gave the Medicis a second thought, and now I know their impact on history. Thank you for this wonderful channel. (And the segue into BEAM was quite clever. )

[@RoyaltyNowStudios]

Thank you as always!!

[@pamelaschutz1248]

We could sure do with some de Medici medicine in the world right now! "A celebration of human potential and achievement, and the importance of intellect, morality, and the arts". Exactly. Il Magnifico. What a story!

[@christinetitus6388]

I found this fascinating. Becca you a very talented! Both Lorenzo & Giuliano were handsome especially with their beautiful smiles!

[@jillwanlin9558]

A brilliant “portrait”in time 500+ yrs ago to prominent Medici family and the intricate ins and outs of a piece of their history. I’m guessing it’s extremely difficult to choose what exactly it is that you’re going to focus on. Brilliant job. I learned so much in 25minutes. Amazing how many of the greats were in Florence during this period. Also, the devious conduct and motives of the Catholic Church throughout history never fails to make me shiver. Andre, great fact finding and narration. Becca, a smooth transition with both Lorenzo’s and Giuliano’s portraits. Absolute perfection, both of you. ❤ RNS - brings me joy each and every time.

[@libbyjensen1858]

It astonishes me how your art work seems to bring actual life to the eyes and then the faces of your subjects!!!

[@Margaretcs0103]

Giuliano looks like my cousin….Lorenzo would be an action movie hero today…..❤

[@kimquinn7728]

What a sweet comment.

[@pamelaschutz1248]

In his own way, Lorenzo is deeply handsome; and completely charismatic, even through a screen.

[@antoniafiorenza]

I couldn't agree more ❤

[@kimquinn7728]

All i have really ever known about the Medici family was from reading, many years ago, Irving Stone's biographical novel The Agony and The Ecstasy about Michaelangelo Buonarroti. Even then their power was absolute. The horrible misuse of the people and power of Pope Siso was sickening. Thank you for all the work and careful research that you put into these wonderful videos. There is nothing else to compare. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@kaylahshaylene1617]

I get so excited when I see a new video of yours 😭😭😭

[@RoyaltyNowStudios]

That is so nice! Thank you!

[@biaotoch]

yesss

[@mariesimcikova4093]

I just had the exact same thought when it popped up in my feed. My brain said Woohoo ❤

[@annettawhitt3266]

Me too!

[@luciagiachetto2393]

I watch all your videos from Italy, I'm honoured you choose Lorenzo and Giuliano de' Medici this time. Love your way to explain history and take it to life

[@Quinn856]

Lorenzo was a great man, not many men in history put their country before their own pleasure, but he did, he made Florence a powerful place in Europe!❤

[@calamityjane9920]

Thank you so much for the detailed informations about their lives. I knew Lorenzo as a patron of art but didn't know of his political skills. And thank you for bringing them back to life: looking at their smiling faces brought tears to my eyes!

[@marywallbridge9749]

Hi guys I found your channel a few months ago and absolutely love it and have watched almost every story, the way you tell the stories of historical figures and recreate their likeness is incredibly informative and an absolute pleasure to watch, I find nit only do I learn but truly enjoy the journeys you take me on back in time, I look forward to many more videos all the best Mary in Australia 😊

[@RoyaltyNowStudios]

Thank you so much Mary! ❤️❤️

[@danahickman5716]

When you gave a hint to your next video, our guess of a Medici was correct. We just guessed it was Catherine. That was another great video and your voice is just as soothing. Also the recreations were excellent.

[@Contessa6363]

Two super stars. They would be just as popular today. ❤❤

[@traceyparadiso8380]

You never disappoint, as usual a visually informative narrative. Thank you 😊

[@Alissa_ya]

Gorgeous. Thank you so much for taking us back in time. Amazing ♥

[@lindac7324]

Absolutely wonderful history lesson and facial re-creations. so glad I discovered your series. Thank you so much! We owe so much to Lorenzo di Medici for the gem that is Florence and his sponsorship of a major milestone of mankind----the Renaissance.

[@AbelTravel]

Absolutely fascinating. Netflix has a three season series on the Medicis and it is excellent. A virtual history lesson. The beauty of Florence and its surrounding cities were the backdrop for the series. Very interesting to see how AI recreates what these two men might have looked like.

[@Eudaimonia88]

Netflix is the absolute worst place to come in order to learn about the Medici.

[@michaelstusiak5902]

Great videos. As a musician I would love to see more composer related videos. I have watched the great job you did with Mozart.

[@michaelstusiak5902]

Maybe someone from the baroque or early classical period.

[@michaelstusiak5902]

Vivaldi as an example.

[@ropolito1980]

Wow so handsome Lorenzo. Giuliano had a sweet smile. Great work guys. I’m always in awe of your research and recreations. Amazing!!!!!

[@jessicanippes1730]

By far, one of the best chanels here on KZbin. Thank you very much, what a great video and step in history ❤

[@lucysnowe31]

Great storytelling and recreations. It's funny but based on your recreations, I think Lorenzo is the better looking one! Giuliano is a little too pretty for my tastes, lol. Lorenzo is such an inspiration. How tragic that the world didn't really get to see what Giuliano had to offer.

[@hollygolden9673]

Wow! Excellent as always!

[@Rosy___]

Omg! So excited about this one one Lorenzo de’ Medici!!! I love learning about the Medici family. Saving this one for later when I have my wine & cake!

[@RoyaltyNowStudios]

Wine and cake!! Haha it’s that kind of night ❤️ honored you are reserving that time for us.

[@JaviMunoz07]

I already knew or heard about The Medici family because I played Assassin’s Creed 2. You brought back to life what they really looked like than the video game depicted. That’s was amazing recreation of their faces of the most powerful person in Florence in 15th Century

[@ceciliazavaleta4491]

I recommend to watch the Netflix series The Medici. Although Lorenzo and Giuliano are played by really handsome actors with little resemblance to how they looked in reality, the story has a lot of truth and this documentary helps me to understand even more the complex and amazing story of Florence at that time. I was lucky to visit this beautiful city a couple of weeks ago and to see Boticelli's Venus and the Dome and to visit the Medici's home moved me beyond words.

[@theartwitchattic]

I’ve been sharing your work for a couple years now on my TikTok and i have been a big fan of the medici dynasty for years. I’ve been waiting for the Medici’s to make an appearance. I’m so freaking happy. Thank you ❤ they both look incredible! Excited to share this one

[@OVERSIMPLIFIED1FAN-m3w]

I literally screamed after I saw u had posted cuz I was so excited ur vid was amazing and never disappointed looking forward to see what else u have in store for us!!!

[@IrishAnnie]

Fascinating history. We are going to Florence in two weeks. I am mesmerized by their impact on art and culture of that gorgeous city. Thank you for bringing them to life for me!

[@mpgchgo]

The re-creations look great, and I have always wanted to learn more about the Medicis. Now that I have, I hope to learn even more! What a great story! Thank you!

[@bellonwheels726]

As with so many others, I find the history and recreations utterly fascinating. But I also really like the orchestrations that accompany each of your videos. Thank you!

[@kirahoelscher8456]

Great video as usual! I would love to see a recreation of Simonetta Vespucci in the future 😊

[@Savedbygrace2u]

The music along with the video is so powerful and moving. ❤. It makes me cry every time I see your recreations. Bravo 👏🏾

[@vyilettwebb9320]

It's always a pleasure to watch another one of your videos. Your work is truly excellent, and it's a delight for me to experience it.☺️

[@krystal4558]

I asked about a year ago for y’all to do him!!! I screamed when I saw the video pop up! Amazing!

[@gabriellareid8630]

The story was sad…I’ve watched documentaries about the Medicis…but the execution of the persons, is what really helps you to connect with the story!!!

[@mac2807]

Excellent, as always!

[@kimberlypatton205]

Such a fabulous video! The facial recreations are just icing on the cake!

[@CynthiaBerry713]

Incredible, as always! Andre, nice to hear your voice!

[@green-user8348]

Fantastic video! Thank you so much!

[@42kellys]

Thank you so much for the next piece of the series.

[@cindymitcheltree7961]

This video is wonderful! I love all the history and then the portraits blow me away! I think Lorenzo resembles Robert DeNiro.

[@monmothma3358]

Wonderful, as always. The talent you guys have for bringing history to life...

[@vallinobblitt3977]

Extraordinary!! Always amazes & impressed.

[@albertawalters3731]

One of my all time favorites! Thank you ❤️

[@justanotherhumanbean5876]

Omg i love this sm the medici series is one of my fav shows

[@sarahcarnithan6771]

Acromegly is caused by a pituitary tumor that over produces growth hormones. The 80's wrestler Andre the Giant had one also.

[@renterialilly]

Catherine de Medici next!! Loved the video!

[@valeriewhitcomb10]

Thank you. Totally enjoyed your video.

[@milouschmidt]

This is one of the best educational history videos I have seen. It touched my heart and the unexpected recreations at the end were simply and incredible gift. Than you so much and congratulations for a fantastic production ❤❤❤

[@cutzwithrazzor]

Thanks for that bit of history, I knew some of it from watching there series that was done. But this by far was a true look into the past. They were right, his brother was very handsome. Cant wait till you next look back into history past.

[@conoceisrael]

wow, lorenzo❤ is one of my favorite carictures. thanks royalty now, love your channel❤

[@jamesalfredstrong8106]

I'm so glad to have finally met these great legendary men ☺️ thanks for that

[@gowanhewlett745]

Wonderful ….both verbal content and visual choices. Thank you

[@amboutte7918]

The smiles get me every time! ❤

[@MimiKoulou]

Fantastic program it has been fantastic to see how the Medici would look and how they would look today thank you for the information of their... Unfortunately we see the programs of Medici and the story they have changed it so much it is sad to change history to fit in a film

[@georgewhitehead8185]

In 1975 I traveled to Florence and climbed up inside of "El Duomo" the dome made by Filippo Brunelleschi, what an experience that was. Magnifico! Doctor George Whitehead

[@that_man_ant378]

Can't wait for the next episode! Ive already recommended your channel to so many people!

[@Deli-xu2ih]

They put so much efforts into leaving behind a legacy, and it worked. You cannot possibly study western arts without hearing their names. Rich people nowadays would be forgotten in less than century by younger generations.

[@Magic_in_York]

What amazing recreations and beautifully narrated. Thank you.

[@rhondareimers5361]

I love your channel! It’s just stunning what you recreate and I also enjoy the history part! Great work.👍⭐️

[@clothespo]

You guys are amazing. Thank you so much!

[@janiceirby7594]

Superbly done, thank you.

Absolutely incredible.!! I ❤️ the deep dive into the real stories. And to see the FACES!!!😮😮 MUCH THANKS ILL B SHARING/ GRANDSONS.

What a coincidence, I just started watching the Medici series on Netflix!

[@deped-cebucityrolandoarane5913]

Giuliano sure is a heartwarmer.

That was very interesting. Thank you.

makes me want to replay assassin’s creed 2 😭 great video! they’re so much fun to watch.

[@Stephano_v_Bove__]

Modern day Lorenzo is 🔥 🔥

[@lisacav6916]

I love this channel.

[@ferajade8899]

Very informative and enjoyable.

[@brad7836]

Why are they not more important in world history? The history of art banking and wealth can be tied back to the family.

[@claudiopeli2774]

For your information, in the word 'MEDICI' the stress falls on the first syllable.

[@cherylwhite8445]

The recreations of Lorenzo and Giuliano at the end were really cool. It was kind of hard to listen to the narrator because his phrasing was so strange, but the doc was interesting.

[@ellaella2885]

Thanks for doing them

[@SuperMusicmaniac24]

I’d love to see Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester the favorite of Elizabeth I

[@ange-bw3kl]

Now I want to see re-creations of how Simonetta Vespucci and Clarice Orsino may have looked like including modern recreations. I've also realized that Lorenzo has many notable descendants who have become rulers of several countries in Europe including Britain, France, Spain, Italy, Austria, Belgium etc. His most famous royal descendants include Catherine de Medici, King Louis XIV, King Louis XV, King Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, King Charles I, King James II, Henrietta Maria. Later royals like Princess Diana, Sarah Ferguson, Camilla Parker Bowles, Prince William, Prince Henry, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie. Even Princess Margaret's granddaughter Margarita Armstrong Jones is also a Medici from her mum's side. Modern stars like Cressida Bonas, Isabella Calthorpe, Kit Harington, Kitty Spencer including Brooke Shields. Even the current royals from Belgium, Spain, Britain are descended from Lorenzo after more than 500 years. The last king of Italy was also his descendant. His line of descent has persisted even after more than 500 years. I wonder if you could ask Lorenzo and Clarice who their top three favourite and least favourite male and female descendants are, who would they choose? Louis XIV would probably be one of Lorenzo's top picks.
