Commemorative Shield on the outside of the entrance of the Aldobrandeschi Castle, Arcidosso, Grosseto, Tuscany. The presence of the helmet of a knight is a symbol for the rank of the family among lower aristocracy. The shield is coupled with a dedicatory inscription in a 16th-17th frame positioned below the coat of arms. [M. Nucciotti, 2005, ref.

Amiata Project is an ongoing GDH collaboration involving faculty and students at the University of Florence and the University of Siena. We could not have done this project without the considerable support of the Municipality of Arcidosso. Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
