Catherine de Medici, born in 1519 into the powerful Medici family of Florence, became Queen of France and a central political figure during a time of intense religious conflict. Despite her attempts at diplomacy, she was often blamed for the violence and turmoil of her era, particularly the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, which tarnished her legacy as the "Black Queen."
