In 1535, the Florentine engraver Benvenuto Cellini was paid 50 "scudi" to recreate the metal matrix which would be used to impress the lead "bullae" of Pope Paul III. Cellini retained definitive iconographic items like the faces of the two Apostles, but he carved them with a much greater attention to detail and artistic sensibility than had previously been in evidence. On the reverse of the seal he added several fleurs-de-lis, a heraldic device of the Farnese family, from which Pope Paul III descended.
