This 16th-century gold medal, crafted by Andrea Spinelli, depicts Girolamo Zane, a Venetian Senator. The medal features a profile portrait of Zane, showcasing his characteristic beard and a detailed rendering of his attire. The inscription around the edge, "HIER. ZANE. SENAT. VENE," identifies the subject and his position. Spinelli, a prominent Renaissance medalist, captured the likeness with a striking realism, highlighting the individual's social standing and significance.
