This 19th-century medal by French sculptor Achille Collas depicts the profile of Élise Voïart, the wife of painter Jacques-Louis David. The relief sculpture, created after 1832, captures Voïart's likeness in a classical style, highlighting her elegant features. The medal is inscribed "Élise Voïart" and "P.L. David 1822," likely referencing a work by her husband. This piece serves as a testament to the enduring artistic influence of the David family and is an example of the Neoclassical style that was popular during the time.
