The Medici coat of arms is a timeless and iconic artifact that has left an everlasting mark on history. Its basic components revolve around a radiant golden shield decorated with six spheres (originally "bisanti"), one of which holds a blue orb adorned with three fleurs-de-lys, symbolizing the Medici family's ancient ties to the royal house of France.

Designed by the artist Muhju, this coat of arms represents a modern reinterpretation of an old tradition, integrated into the current era of the digital art renaissance. Its significance is enhanced by the fact that it was created specifically for Cosimo de' Medici di Toscana di Ottajano.

At the top of the composition, a cherubic figure holds a crown bearing the Ethereum logo that is a reference to the diamond of the Medici, while laurel wreaths evoke the triumphs and immortality of the Medici family. Three feathers on the crown pay homage to Cosimo de' Medici il Vecchio, the "Pater Patriae".

Upon closer inspection, the crest reveals an ornate and gilded skull at the bottom, a motif that encourages the viewer to contemplate the "memento mori". It is a reminder of mortality that is countered by the resurrection of artistic creation, symbolized by the wings of angelic figures that adorn the coat of arms.

The phrase "Le Temps Revient" is engraved on the banners. This echoes the "motto" of Lorenzo il Magnifico, which alludes to the famous passage in Virgil's 4th Egloga "Redeunt Saturnia regna... surget gens aurea mundo" and which inspired Sandro Botticelli to paint his "Primavera".

This inscription heralds, even in times of crisis, the hope for the beginning of a new era of prosperity and artistic splendor.
