Francis I (12 September 1494 – 31 March 1547), named Francis of the Large Nose, was the King of France from 1515 until his death in 1547; he succeeded his cousin Louis XII, who died without a male heir.

In Leonardo da Vinci's later life, Francis offered da Vinci a mansion in Amboise to spend the rest of his years. After da Vinci passed away, Francis falsely claimed to have been on his deathbed when he drew his last breath, while truthfully da Vinci's friends Ezio Auditore da Firenze and Niccolò Machiavelli were there when he passed away.[1]

In 2012, Francis was included in a mnemonic set in Abstergo Industries' Project Legacy.[2]
