Long Table 120. Salton Medals at the Metropolitan Museum of Art
Channel: American Numismatic Society
Date: 2022-12-16

Join Denise Allen, Curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the European Sculpture and Decorative Arts department and specialist in Renaissance fine arts, for the final Long Table of 2022. Allen will review the collection of Renaissance and early modern medals donated to the Met by the estate of Mark and Lottie Salton, major ANS benefactors, whose memory was celebrated at the Society’s 2021 virtual Gala. Enriching the Met’s current holdings of Renaissance medals, these recent acquisitions establish a true study collection for future research into important historical commemorative art objects.
