Ludovico Sforza Duke of Milan (Ludovico il Moro, "The Moor"; 27 July 1452 – 27 May 1508), a member of the Sforza dynasty of Milan, Italy, was the second son of Francesco Sforza, and was famed as patron of Leonardo da Vinci and other artists. It is said that he was called il Moro because of his dark skinned complexion. Some scholars believe that the name Moro came from Ludovico's coat of arms, which contained the mulberry tree, but that is doubtful, as the Italian name for that tree is the feminine mora rather than the masculine moro. In Italian "moro", just like "bruno", is the masculine equivalent of "brunette" ("mora" in Italian). So the epithet most likely refers either to Ludovico's jet black hair or perhaps his swarthy complexion (suggesting he resembled a Moor). Ludovico Sforza wa... Biography of Thierry Jean-Pierre
