Giuliano and Clemente della Rovere 1489 - 1499

Giovanni Filangieri Candida's "Giuliano and Clemente della Rovere" (1489-1499) is a circular silver medal depicting a profile portrait of a man, likely a member of the della Rovere family. This Renaissance-era medal, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, demonstrates the artist's skill in capturing likeness through fine detail. The inscription around the edge further identifies the subject and adds historical context to the piece. The medal's small size (61.3 mm diameter) suggests its use as a personal keepsake or a commemorative piece.
