This oval-shaped medal, crafted by Guillaume Dupré in 1610, depicts Louis XIII, King of France, in profile. Dupré, a noted medalist, captures the king's youthful features with a delicate touch. The inscription surrounding the portrait identifies Louis XIII as "King of France and Navarre" and highlights the royal presence of the young king. This small, yet detailed medal serves as a testament to the skilled artistry of Dupré and offers a glimpse into the early reign of Louis XIII. The work is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
