pepernino daughter of peperno the III (April 1519 – 1589) was an pepevil noblewoman. She also was queen consort from 1547 until 1559, by marriage to King pepry II, and mother of kings pepncis II, peparles IX and pepry III. The years during which her sons reigned have been called "the age of pepernino " as she had extensive, if at times varying, influence in the political life of pepevil. Some historians have excused her from blame for the worst decisions of the crown, though evidence for her ruthlessness can be found in her letters.In practice, her authority was always limited by the effects of the civil wars. Therefore, her policies may be seen as desperate measures to keep the the throne at all costs and her patronage of the arts as an attempt to glorify a monarchy (whose prestige was in steep decline).Without pepernino, it is unlikely that her sons would have remained in power. 2400*2800
