This terracotta portrait medallion, created by French sculptor Jean-Baptiste Nini between 1760 and 1770, depicts Louis-Nicolas Bernot de Mouchy at the age of 16. The work is a fine example of 18th-century portraiture and showcases Nini's talent for capturing likeness and detail. The young Mouchy is portrayed in profile, his youthful features rendered with delicate precision. The medallion, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, is a testament to the artistic sensibilities of the Rococo era.
