Wereldtentoonstelling te Brussel 1910 1910

This commemorative medal, created by Belgian artist Godefroid Devreese in 1910, commemorates the World's Fair held in Brussels that year. The obverse of the medal depicts a figure on horseback, symbolizing the dynamism of Belgium, while the reverse shows a man receiving a laurel wreath from a female figure, likely representing the city of Brussels and its welcoming spirit. The medal, measuring a mere 7.1 cm in diameter, showcases the artist's skill in depicting complex scenes in a compact format, a defining characteristic of the medal-making art form.
