About Hugh dei Lippi Uggucioni
Hugh dei Lippi Uggucioni is a name traditionally assigned to one of the Seven Holy Founders of the Order of the Servants of Mary. The order’s historical discussion cautions that only a small number of individual names can be securely established from the earliest sources. This profile therefore concerns a received name within a collective religious memory, not a separately documented personal career.
The group took shape in thirteenth-century Florence and developed a common life associated with Monte Senario. Later lists give names to the seven founders, including Uguccione, but the source does not support attaching a distinct office, family chronology, or death date to this member.
The seven were canonized as a group. Their shared recognition explains the saint status in this profile. A portrait can only be an imaginative representation of a member of that community; no authentic individual likeness or uniquely identifiable attribute is known.
