This bronze medal, created by Matteo de' Pasti in 1446, depicts Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, Lord of Rimini, in a profile portrait. The medal, a significant example of Renaissance portraiture, features intricate detail and a realistic representation of the subject. De' Pasti's work showcases the emerging interest in classical Roman portraiture and marks a shift towards more naturalistic representations in art.
