In 1467 the troops brought at that point from almost all over the Apennine Peninsula fought a battle of Molinella. Bartolomeo Colleoni commanded the army of the Republic of Venice and its allies, while Federico da Montefeltro, ruler of Urbino in 1444-82, headed the troops of Florence, Milan and Naples. A year later peace was made on the initiative of Pope Paul II, this therefore called Pax Paolina. The events were commemorated in a stately medal of Federico de Montefeltro executed by Clemente da Urbino, the only preserved work of the artist. The medal’s obverse features Federico da Montefeltro’s bust in profile all’antica with an inscription comparing the hero to outstanding Roman generals. The medal’s reverse contains an intricate composition combining symbolic, astrological, and mythological representations.
