Giovanni Guido Agrippa
Giovanni Guido Agrippa was a medalist who worked in Venice between 1501 and 1519 . He was of lower nobility and was in the service of Doge Leonardo Loredan , on whose behalf he made at least two commemorative medals, which were probably created on the occasion of the assumption of office in 1501. It is unknown whether he made other medals in addition to these two signed works.
