"Inwijding van het Luthers diaconiehuis te Amsterdam" is a silver medal created in 1772 by Dutch artist Barend Christiaan van Calker. The medal depicts a building, likely the Luthers diaconiehuis, and an inscription naming the building's founders. The reverse side shows a person with wings, holding a cross in the air, with the inscription "INCVRBAT RVITVM" below. The medal, a small piece of art, is a testament to the Dutch artist's skill in portraying details and events in a commemorative manner. This piece is likely part of a collection of medals that were created to commemorate the history and accomplishments of various buildings and individuals in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
