The exterior shots of Santa Maria del Fiora show the existing Facade. This facade was not built at the time. It was designed by Emilio De Fabris and installed in 1886-87.
Lorenso is shown as wanting Guglielmo Pazzi to be executed for the Pazzi family's attack on Guiliano and himself. In reality, after his older sister Bianca begged for Guglielmo's life, Lorenzo persuaded the Signoria to send them into a modified exile. They had to live in a zone from five to twenty miles from Florence.
