Theodorus Casparus van Berckel's 1713 silver medal, 's-Hertogenbosch, vroedschapspenning op de vrede van Utrecht, commemorates the Peace of Utrecht, which ended the War of the Spanish Succession. The obverse depicts a cityscape, likely 's-Hertogenbosch, with a woman representing peace holding a shield and a palm branch. The reverse features a seated figure representing peace holding a caduceus and a cornucopia, surrounded by allegorical figures. This small, detailed work exemplifies the Dutch Baroque style of medal making.
