This bronze medal, created by Johannes Cornelis Wienecke in 1928, commemorates the ninth Olympic Games held in Amsterdam. The design features a winged figure of Victory, symbolizing the games, above a stylized depiction of the Olympic Stadium. Flanking the stadium are two olive branches, representing peace and unity, and at the bottom, a coat of arms with the Olympic rings and the year 1928. This medal, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable artifact capturing the spirit of the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics and Dutch artistic style of the time.
