Description
This young man is possibly a member of the Sforza household, the ruling family of Milan during the Renaissance. He wears a plaquette on his hat indicating his nobility and status. This medallion depicts an actual work by Andrea Riccio (1470–1532), an artist whose work is represented in the museum's collection. The medallion illustrates an allegory of fortune and virtue personified by a winged woman and a child.- -1913Baron Michele Lazzaroni [d- 1937], Rome, Italy and Paris, France, sold to Lord Duveen of Millbank1913-1914Lord Duveen of Millbank [1869-1939] City of Westminister, London, United Kingdom, sold to James Parmelee1914-1940James Parmelee [1855-1931] Washington DC by bequest to the Cleveland Museum of Art1940-The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH
