Societe Royale d'Agriculture et de Botanique te Gent 1822

This silver medal, created by Joseph-Pierre Braemt in 1822, is a beautiful example of Neoclassical medallic art. The obverse depicts a woman with a wreath of fruits and flowers, a symbol of agriculture and botany, while the reverse is adorned with a decorative wreath. This medal was likely awarded by the Royal Society of Agriculture and Botany of Ghent to recognize contributions to these fields. The medal's size, diameter 3.7 cm and weight 315 gr, makes it a subtle yet significant award for a recipient.
