Philip as Apollo in a Chariot Drawn across the Sky by Four Horses [reverse]

Jacopo Nizzola da Trezzo

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a bronze medallion with intricate relief work. In the center, there is a figure riding a chariot pulled by four horses. The figure is draped in flowing garments and appears to be in motion from left to right. The background features a landscape with rocks or clouds. Surrounding the medallion is an inscription in the Latin alphabet: "IAM ILLVSTRABIT OMNIA." The bronze material gives a dark brown color with lighter highlights on the raised areas, emphasizing the design. The craftsmanship suggests this is a historically significant medallion meant for close visual inspection.
