This bronze medal, created by David van der Kellen in 1854, commemorates the agricultural exhibition held in Arnhem, Netherlands, in honor of King Willem III. The medal's obverse features a profile portrait of H.J. Wilke, a recipient of a prize for his pineapples, while the reverse showcases a scroll bearing the inscription "Aan den winnaar voor Ananas" ("To the winner for Pineapples") within a wreath. The medal, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into Dutch agricultural practices and royal patronage during the mid-19th century.
