The image captures his authoritative presence and noble demeanor, reflecting his role as the Lord of Cesena and Cervia from 1429 until his passing in 1465. Created around 1445 by Antonio di Puccio da Cereto, also known as Pisanello, this piece exemplifies the artist's mastery of capturing intricate details with bronze. The circular medallion features an inscription that proudly identifies Domenico Malatesta while showcasing exquisite lettering in a gothic style.
