"Elogium on Giangaleazzo Visconti" is a notable illuminated manuscript attributed to the Italian painter Michelino da Besozzo, a prominent artist of the Gothic period. This work is a panegyric dedicated to Giangaleazzo Visconti, the first Duke of Milan, and is an exemplar of the Lombard school of illumination. Created in the early 15th century, the Elogium is a testament to the political and cultural influence of the Visconti dynasty during the Italian Renaissance.

Michelino da Besozzo, whose real name was Michelino de Mulinari, was renowned for his mastery in miniature painting and manuscript illumination. His work on the Elogium is characterized by intricate detail, vivid coloration, and the use of gold leaf, which were hallmarks of the opulent style favored by the Milanese court. The manuscript not only serves as a piece of artistic expression but also as a historical document that provides insight into the political propaganda and iconography associated with Giangaleazzo Visconti's rule.

The Elogium contains a series of illustrations and texts that glorify the Duke's lineage, virtues, and accomplishments. It is a celebration of his power and his efforts to position Milan as a dominant force in Northern Italy. The artwork within the Elogium is a blend of religious iconography and secular portraiture, reflecting the dual role of the Duke as both a temporal leader and a pious Christian.

Preserved in a European collection, the Elogium on Giangaleazzo Visconti by Michelino da Besozzo is a valuable piece of cultural heritage that offers a window into the artistic and political climate of early 15th-century Milan. Its significance lies not only in its aesthetic qualities but also in its role in perpetuating the legacy of one of the most influential figures of the Italian Renaissance.
