This 1776 commemorative medal by Theodorus Victor van Berckel celebrates the 25th anniversary of Duke Louis William Ernest of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel as governor of 's-Hertogenbosch. The medal depicts the Duke shaking hands with a personification of the city, who holds a shield bearing the city's coat of arms. The inscription, "Laetitia Silvaducensium," translates to "Joy of the People of the Forest," referencing the city's name and its inhabitants. The medal is a fine example of 18th-century commemorative art and provides insight into the history of 's-Hertogenbosch and its governance.
