Bonfire of the Vanities in History
This Bonfire of the Vanities is an actual historical event which took place on February 7, 1497 (approximately 5 years after Lorenzo de' Medici's death). Spearheaded by the Dominican friar Girolamo Savonarola, citizens and supporters of the radical priest burned items that might "tempt one to sin" (vanity items like mirrors, cosmetics, fine dresses, etc). Other items included in the burning were literary materials that were deemed "immoral", such as paintings, sculptures, manuscripts of secular songs and some books.
This event happened in Florence, during the Shrove Tuesday festival.
