Zeeslag bij Kaap La Hogue, de Fransen verslagen door de vloot van Engeland en Holland 1692

This silver medal, created by Dutch artist Jan Smeltzing in 1692, commemorates the naval battle of La Hougue. It depicts a scene of the battle, with a warship in the foreground and a figure holding a scroll in the background. The medal is a testament to Smeltzing's talent in portraying historical events in miniature form. It is a prime example of 17th-century medallic art and captures the essence of the battle between the French and the combined English and Dutch fleets.
