This 1567 bronze medal by Pier Paolo Galeotti depicts Cosimo I de' Medici, Duke of Florence. The medal showcases Cosimo in profile, his face slightly turned towards the viewer. He wears a richly decorated armor, with a visible part of a cloak, and is depicted in a classical style, reflecting the artistic trends of the Italian Renaissance. The medal's inscription, "COSMUS MED FLORE NET SER DUX", identifies Cosimo as the Duke of Florence.
