Overgang van Christina van Zweden tot de Rooms Katholieke kerk 1654

This small, silver medal, created in 1654 by an unknown artist, commemorates Christina of Sweden's conversion to Roman Catholicism. The front depicts a profile portrait of Christina, while the back shows a ship, symbolizing her voyage to Rome, with the inscription "AVT MATER AVT NULLA". The medal, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the historical event and the religious fervor surrounding Christina's decision.
