Athlone, Galway en Sligo ingenomen door Willem III 1691

This silver medal, created by Jan (I) Smeltzing in 1691, commemorates the capture of the Irish towns of Athlone, Galway, and Sligo by William III. The obverse depicts a profile portrait of William III and Mary II, while the reverse features three scenes representing the captured towns, surrounded by a laurel wreath. This small, but detailed, piece of artwork is a significant example of commemorative medallic art from the 17th century, capturing a moment of political and military triumph.
