This 1730 bronze medal by François Joseph Marteau (1720-1759) depicts Philibert Baudot, a member of the Chamber of Accounts in Dijon. The front of the medal showcases a heraldic shield flanked by two greyhounds, while the reverse features a crowned shield surrounded by a laurel wreath. The detailed inscription on the medal provides information about Baudot's position and the date. This small-scale artwork, measuring just 3.1 cm in diameter, is a fine example of the 18th-century medallic art in France.
