Commentary

Il doit probablement s’agir d’une fonte postérieure (XVIIIe siècle) étant donné sa tranche d’aspect lisse.
Domenico Novello Malatesta (1418-1465) est un condottière italien, fils de Pandolfo III Malatesta..
It must probably be a later cast (18th century) given its smooth edge. Domenico Novello Malatesta (1418-1465) was an Italian condottiere, son of Pandolfo III Malatesta.
