This silver medal by Guillaume Dupré depicts Marie de Médicis, Queen of France, in profile. Created in 1615, the medal portrays Marie in a finely detailed, realistic manner, showcasing her elaborate jewelry and detailed attire. The inscription surrounding the portrait reads "MARIA. AVG. GALLIAE. ET. NAVARRAE. REGINA" which translates to "Maria, by the Grace of God, Queen of France and Navarre". This piece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, provides a glimpse into the artistry of the time and the grandeur of the French court.
