Overwinning op de Nederlandse vloot onder admiraal de Pater 1631

This silver medal, created by Dutch artist Adriaan Waterloos in 1631, commemorates the Dutch victory over the Spanish fleet under Admiral de Pater. The obverse features a profile portrait of the admiral, while the reverse depicts a figure triumphing over a lion, symbolizing the overcoming of the Spanish threat. This small-scale work is a prime example of commemorative medallic art, a popular form during the 17th century.
