From the Renaissance and onwards, the medal has been an important element of European art and visual culture. It was appreciated for its symbolic and material value. However, much of its significance lies in the fact that it affects multiple senses and not sight alone.

How people engaged with medals and which significance this medium gained and lost unearths how visual media and early modern art were used over time.
