''Portrait of a Man with a Medal of Cosimo the Elder'' is a painting by the Italian Renaissance master Sandro Botticelli, dated to c. 1474. This early Renaissance work is a notable example of portraiture from the period, showcasing Botticelli's skill in capturing both the physical likeness and the character of his subjects. The painting is remarkable for its inclusion of a medal depicting Cosimo de' Medici, the Elder, a prominent figure in Florentine politics and an important patron of the arts.

The portrait features a young man holding a commemorative medal. The medal, which is painted in meticulous detail, bears the profile of Cosimo de' Medici and is believed to have been cast by the goldsmith and sculptor Antonio di Puccio Pisano, also known as Pisanello. The identity of the young man in the painting is unknown, but he is thought to be a member of the Medici family or a close associate, as the possession of such a medal would suggest a connection to the Medici circle.

Botticelli's work is characterized by its linear grace and the clarity of its composition. In this painting, the artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the textures of fabric and the sitter's hair, demonstrate his mastery of the techniques that were emerging during the Renaissance. The background, which is relatively simple, serves to focus attention on the figure and the medal, emphasizing the status and the intellectual interests of the sitter.

The ''Portrait of a Man with a Medal of Cosimo the Elder'' is housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, a testament to its significance in the canon of Renaissance art. It remains an important subject of study for art historians and scholars of the period, offering insights into the cultural and social dynamics of 15th-century Florence, as well as the artistic practices of Botticelli and his contemporaries.
