424 pp., 495 ill. (includes 105 medals in full colour) Pages have a remainder stamp on bottom outer edges. 'This is the first book ever published that highlights the great formative period of a distinctive art form that has been, until now, the exclusive province of knowledgeable collectors and connoisseurs. The Renaissance portrait medal, wherein cultures, personal histories, and individual likenesses are captured, has generally been viewed as an intriguing branch of numismatics, and thus not always properly appreciated as an example of a most subtle and delicate form of relief sculpture.'
