This 1886 medal, "In honor of Christakis B. Zografos", was created by French sculptor Jules-Clément Chaplain. The medal is a two-sided circular sculpture, featuring Christakis B. Zografos on one side and a stylized beehive, a symbol of industry, on the other. The beehive is surrounded by olive branches and inscribed in Greek, likely commemorating the 66th year of Zografos' life. This detailed work is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
