This commemorative medal, created by Dutch artist Jacob Jan van Goor in 1920, celebrates the 200th anniversary of the Rotterdam-based firm Mees and Zoonen. The obverse features a portrait of Rudolph Mees, founder of the company, while the reverse depicts the city of Rotterdam with its iconic bridge, symbolizing the company's success. The inscription "Honore Labore ac Probitate, Der Saeculi Lapidi Summa Adeunt" translates to "Honored for labor and integrity, to the cornerstone of the century they ascend." This piece, crafted in bronze, stands as a testament to the firm's longevity and the artistic talent of Van Goor.
