EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the obverse side of a bronze medallion depicting Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, the influential Lord of Rimini and Fano. Created around 1445 by the renowned Italian artist Pisanello, this masterpiece is a testament to his exceptional skill in capturing the essence of aristocracy during the 15th century. The circular medallion features an intricately detailed portrait of Malatesta, showcasing his noble countenance and distinctive hairstyle. The gothic style lettering inscribed on it adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to this remarkable work of art. Malatesta was not only known for his lordship but also for his role as a condottiero - a mercenary leader during medieval times. This medallion serves as a reminder of his significant contributions to both military endeavors and political power in Italy. Housed within the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this piece stands as an iconic representation of Pisanello's talent and mastery. Its preservation allows us to delve into history and appreciate the beauty that lies within heritage art. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness one man's journey through life - from being an influential lord to becoming an esteemed figure immortalized by Pisanello's artistic genius.
