Portrait of Piero the Gouty, dressed in gold-edged Florentine red over black robes. His expression is calm and serious, though with some tightness of the face which makes me think of pain. We call him "Piero the Gouty" to differentiate him from his grandson "Piero the Unfortunate" but I think it's pretty unfortunate going down in history named for your stigmatized disability!

Books where the Medici are the bad guys (tyrants who corrupted the republic!) will make this incident proof of Piero’s haughty decadence. But I know can’t do those stairs on a pain day, and we could equally call it a disability accommodation. He’s still called “Piero the Gouty” to this day. 15/?
