| Reverse description | Saint John the Baptist, depicted standing to the right with a nimbus, his body draped in a camel-skin garment, presents a large banner bearing the cross of the Order of Malta to the kneeling Grand Master Antonio Manoel de Vilhena, who is shown in armour with a plumed helmet at his side, genuflecting in a posture of devotion. The composition is rendered in fine baroque relief with both figures occupying the full field. The circular legend PIETATE· ·VINCES· (By piety thou shalt conquer) runs along the upper periphery. A milled beaded border frames the design. |
