Jacopo Saltarelli

Born in 1459, Jacopo Saltarelli was a 17 year old model and male prostitute that Leonardo da Vinci was anonymously accused of committing Sodomy with, an offence Leonardo was then jailed for, serving two months before the charges were dropped.

On April 8th, 1476, an anonymous message was left with the Ufficiali di Notte e dei Monasteri , slipped by an unknown person into the suggestion box called a tamburo.

The denunciation read "Jacopo Saltarelli has been party to many wretched things, and consents to please those persons who request such wickedness of him.", accusing him of sodomy with dozens of men, of whom only four are named.

  • Baccino, a tailor
  • Lionardo di Ser Piero da Vinci, a twenty-four year old youth
  • Bartolomeo di Pasquino, a goldsmith
  • Lionardo, a member of the aristocratic Tornabuoni family

While Saltarelli is presumed to have been found guilty, the most notable name on the list, Leonardo da Vinci, was found not guilty due to a lack of evidence.
