Huwelijk van Hendrik IV, koning van Frankrijk met Maria de' Medici Possibly 1603 - 1628

This bronze medal, created by Guillaume Dupré, depicts the wedding of King Henry IV of France and Maria de’ Medici. The obverse shows a profile portrait of Henry IV, while the reverse shows the couple shaking hands with an eagle flying overhead. This small medal, with a diameter of only 6.3 centimeters, is a testament to the skill of Dupré and serves as a historical record of this important event in French history. The medal likely dates from between 1603 and 1628, the period in which Dupré was active and the marriage took place.
