description The Savona Summit was a major diplomatic event in early sixteenth-century Europe. The festivities and negotiations shared by Ferdinand II of Aragon and Louis XII of France turned that meeting into one of the first summits of the Modern Age, barely treated by historiography. In the present work we gather the available sources—edited and unpublished—to analyze its liturgical, festive and ceremonial dimensions, reconstructing the political objectives and ideological messages that projected a new ideal of peace under the Spanish-French alliance. With its religious and palatine splendour, the Savona Summit allowed Louis XII to overcome his international isolation, and Ferdinand to restore his image on the eve of his return to the Iberian Peninsula.
