Jacopo Strada's Magnum ac Novum Opus

A Numismatic Corpus of the 16th Century

Jacopo Strada (c. 1515–1588), antiquarian, architect and antiquarian dealer, created a 30-volume corpus, the Magnum ac Novum Opus (MaNO), for his patron Johann Jakob Fugger in the mid-16th century. The project brings together Jacopo Strada's numismatic corpus, analyses it in its historical and artistic context, researches the sources, and elaborates its significance for the scientific history of numismatics and antiquarian research in the 16th century.
