vierjaarlijkse tentoonstelling van kunstwerken te Arnhem 1901

This bronze medal, created by Ch. Roskam in 1901, commemorates the "vierjaarlijkse tentoonstelling van kunstwerken te Arnhem" (quadrennial exhibition of works of art in Arnhem). The obverse features a stylized tree with fruit, representing the flourishing of the arts, and a shield bearing the city's coat of arms, while the reverse depicts a sprout emerging from a swirling sea, symbolizing the growth of artistic expression. The medal's small size and detailed design make it a striking example of commemorative art from the turn of the 20th century.
