Lettere del Card[inale] Francesco de Medici al Mar[chese] Montauti : manuscript, 1688-1699.

Letters from Cardinal Francesco Maria de'Medici, son of Ferdinand II, and his secretary Paolantonio Conti to Anton Francesco Montauti, envoy to the imperial court in Vienna regarding relations between the three courts of the Holy Roman Empire, the Pope, and the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. The Cardinal's letters, sent with dispatches, are notably personal in tone, conveying Christmas greetings, concern for Montauti's health, expressions of affection with gratitude for gifts, for example, the first letter in the volume, an effusive thank-you for the gift of a "spiritoso" Muslim slave boy (1 May 1688).
