After the death of his father, he fought initially for the Neapolitan army and then for Pope Martin V and the Duke of Milan, Filippo Maria Visconti.

While the other Italian states gradually recognized Sforza as the legitimate Duke of Milan, he was never able to obtain official investiture from the Holy Roman Emperor.

That did not come to the Sforza Dukes until 1494, when Emperor Maximilian formally invested Francesco's son, Lodovico ( also known as Ludovico Sforza ), as Duke of Milan.

It was while she was being entertained by Louis, whose troops occupied Milan, that she offered asylum to Milanese refugees including Cecilia Gallerani, the refined mistress of her sister Beatrice's husband, Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, who had been forced to leave his duchy in the wake of French occupation.

But France was estranged ; the Duke of Burgundy broke his positive promises ; Milan was engrossed with the attempt to seize Genoa ; Florence cynically advised the Pope to let the Turks and the Venetians wear each other out.

His son Francesco I Sforza ruled Milan for the first half of the Renaissance era, acquiring the title of Duke of Milan from the extinct Visconti family in 1447.

After Imperial German troops drove out the French, Maximilian Sforza, son of Ludovico, became Duke of Milan ( 1513-1515 ) until the French returned under Francis I of France and imprisoned him.

Anguissola traveled to Rome, where she was introduced to Michelangelo who immediately recognized her talent, Milan, where she painted the Duke of Alba, Madrid, which was a turning point in her career serving as a court painter and painting many official portraits for the Spanish court, and Palermo, Pisa, and Genoa, where she was the leading portrait painter.

In 1558, already established as a painter, Anguissola went to Milan, where she painted the Duke of Alba, who in turn recommended her to the Spanish king, Philip II.

A second historical tragedy, A faithful Servant of his Lord (, 1826, performed 1828 ), attempted to embody a more heroic gospel ; but the subject of the superhuman self-effacement of Bankbanus before Duke Otto of Meran proved too uncompromising an illustration of Kant's categorical imperative of duty to be palatable in the theatre.
