Fresca de' Rossi

Fresca de' Rossi was one of the six children of the Parmese condottiero Pietro de' Rossi and Ginella Fieschi of Calestano, who married in 1328.

Her sisters were Luchina, Teodora, Isabella and Luigia, and her only brother was the knight Bernardo. Her father, captain of Venice's anti-Scaliger league, was killed at the siege of Monselice in August 1337, when his children were still young.
