Commentary

Il doit probablement s’agir d’une fonte postérieure étant donné sa tranche d’aspect lisse.
Isotta degli Atti (1432/3-1474) est la maîtresse puis femme de Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, seigneur de Rimini.
It must probably be a later cast given its smooth edge. Isotta degli Atti (1432/3-1474) was the mistress and then wife of Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, lord of Rimini
