Portrait of Leonello DEste, Marquess of Ferrara (obverse), c. 1440-1444. Renaissance medals usually show a person on the front and a symbolic element on the back, creating an overall statement about the individual. The meaning of the two men in a sailboat remains opaque, intentionally meant to be understood only by a small circle of intellectuals.
