Notes

  • [a] Federigo's father Stefano claimed him as his oldest son in the household, age 15, in his 1427 tax declaration.
  • [b] Lorenz Böninger cites an inventory of Federigo's shop dated May 2, 1491 that likely was drawn up at or after his death. See Böninger, Niccolò di Lorenzo della Magna and the Social World of Florentine Printing, ca. 1470-1493 (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2021), 133n12.
  • [c] Federigo was elected guild consul on August 20th, 1481. He was also drawn in 1470 and 1485 but was not seated for tax arrears.
  • [d] Federigo was in his father's house at the time of his 1427 catasto declaration and was likely born there. More research is needed to confirm that this remained his house as an adult.
