Franse steun tijdens de Tiendaagse veldtocht en bij de verovering van de citadel van Antwerpen 1832

This bronze medal, created by M. Borrel in 1832, commemorates the French military intervention in the Belgian Revolution. The obverse depicts a laurel wreath and the inscription “PRISE DE LA CITADELLE D’ANVERS PAR L’ARMÉE FRANÇAISE APRÈS 22 JOURS DE SIÈGE.” The reverse shows a dedication to the Belgian people and the date “4 AOUT 1831.” This small, intricately designed medal, measuring just 3.6 cm in diameter, is a poignant reminder of the French involvement in Belgian independence.
