WHO would be a Genoese quincentenarian? Discover the new world and for your 500th birthday you will be accused of annihilating the Native American. You may even be blamed for the greenhouse effect. Far better be a Florentine.

The anniversary of the voyage of Columbus has not done much for his native Genoa. The quincentenary of Lorenzo de Medici's death in 1492, on the other hand, is a cause of much rejoicing across the way in Florence.
