Francesco Maria Pico (Concordia sulla Secchia, 30 September 1688 – Madrid, 26 November 1747), also known as Francesco Maria II Pico della Mirandola to distinguish him from his father, was an Italian nobleman, third Duke of Mirandola and fourth Marquis of Concordia.
Nicknamed 'il Duchino', because he became sovereign at the age of just over 2 years, he was the last member of the Pico family to reign over the Duchy of Mirandola, which with him put an end to its independence: in fact, the sovereign was deposed in 1708 following the War of the Spanish Succession and in 1710 the Duchy was sold to Rinaldo d'Este and annexed to the Duchy of Modena and Reggio.
Since both of his marriages turned out to be childless, the direct line of the Pico della Mirandola rulers became extinct with him.
