This circular medal, created by German Renaissance artist Friedrich Hagenauer in 1527, depicts Sebastian Liegsalz, a prominent Munich patrician, in profile. The medal's inscription, "SEBASTIAN LIEGSALZ," identifies the subject, while "M.D.XXVII" indicates the year of creation. The detailed rendering of Liegsalz's clothing and the inscription reflect the Renaissance interest in realism and historical documentation. This small, yet intricate, work demonstrates Hagenauer's mastery of medallic art.
