This silver medal, created by C. van Gemert in 1853, commemorates the return of the statue of the Virgin Mary to 's-Hertogenbosch from Brussels. One side features a portrait of Johannes Zwijsen, the Archbishop of Utrecht, and the other depicts the statue of the Virgin Mary. This medal serves as a testament to the religious fervor and historical significance of the event. It is a rare example of a commemorative medal from this period and provides insight into the artistic styles of 19th-century Netherlands.
