Spanning six centuries and seven countries, the Middeldorf
Collection assembled by the late eminent art historian Ulrich
Middeldorf provides an extraordinary overview of major
personalities and of political, social, cultural, and religious
events as depicted in more than 350 medals and plaquettes.
Illustrated in full color and accompanied by extensive
documentation are commemorations of kings, queens, emperors, poets,
composers, physicians, artists, inventors, popes, cardinals, and
bishops. Papal annual and jubilee medals and delightful French
reliefs from the Belle Epoque complement medals from the eras of
Louis XIV and XV, Napoleon, and the Risorgimento. Highlights of the
collection are Italian medals from the 17th century and later
periods that until recently have received little scholarly
attention."
