Medal: Federigo da Montefeltro model ca. 1482 (possibly cast 18th or 19th century) Savelli Sperandio Italian Sperandio di Bartolommeo Savelli was an Italian medallist, architect, sculptor, painter, bronze and cannon caster. He was the son of a Roman goldsmith, Bartolommeo di Sperandio Savelli. A prolific medallist, he produced medals of several Italian rulers. The obverse bears a portrait of Federigo da Montefeltro, duke of Urbino (142 2- 1482), and the reverse showsFederigo on horseback. Goethe, who owned a medal of this type, praised Sperandio over Pisanello, on the basis of comparison with Pisanellos medals of Sigismondo Malatesta. The piece, which is a late aftercast, possibly from the eighteenth or nineteenth century, may be after a lead original of about 1482.. Medal: Federigo da Montefeltro 461258

Maximillian II, Holy Roman Emperor (1527-1576) 1575 Medalist: Antonio Abondio Italian These medal portrayals of the Holy Roman Emperor and his wife Maria (see also 1989.12.3) are cast separate with plain reverse, but the couple can be found united on one medal as well. The separation of the images allowed to compare both captivating profiles as companion pieces side by side, but also enabled craftsmen to incorporate them in other Kunstkammer and presentation objects, such as ebony cabinets or boxes, silver drinking vessels, or precious jewelry mounts. Abondio entered the service of Emperor Maximillian II (r. 1564-76) in Vienna in 1566 and was kept on by his son Rudolf II (r. 1576-1612). The artist later moved with the imperial court from Vienna to Prague. His strength was in the imposing characterization of princely portraiture in which he never neglected his love for minute ornamental details.. Maximillian II, Holy Roman Emperor (1527-1576) 207784
