This bronze medal, created by Jacob Samuel Cohen Elion in 1866, commemorates Prince Frederik's 50th year as Grand Master of the Order of Freemasons in the Netherlands. The obverse features a profile portrait of the Prince, while the reverse depicts a figure of Justice crowning a monument with a laurel wreath. The medal's inscription highlights Prince Frederik's role as a Grand Master, and the symbolic imagery represents the ideals of justice and virtue associated with Freemasonry. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, this small, yet significant, artwork offers a glimpse into the history of Dutch Freemasonry and the artistic practices of the 19th century.
