The picture shows the reverse of a medal in honour of Filippo de' Medici. It represents the Last Judgment.
Bertoldo's medals are characterized by low relief, a certain awkwardness of proportions in relation to the circular field on the obverse, a fine individualisation of portraiture, and the animation of the reverse with crowds of tiny, agitated figures, often with fanciful references to classical allegorical or mythological subjects.
