This small, silver medal, created in 1602 by Gerard van Bylaer, depicts Prince Maurits of Nassau. The medal is a portrait of the Prince in profile on one side and features an olive tree symbolizing peace on the other. This medal was likely created as a commemorative piece for the Prince, a prominent figure in the Dutch Republic during the Eighty Years' War. This small artwork is a fine example of medallic art, which combines historical representation with artistry.
