Tentoonstelling van visserijgereedschap, ter ere van Willem III, koning der Nederlanden 1861

This bronze medal, created by David van der Kellen in 1861, commemorates the exhibition of fishing gear in Amsterdam, organized by the "Visschers-Vereeniging" (Fisherman's Association). One side features a profile portrait of King Willem III of the Netherlands, while the other depicts a wreath of leaves encircling the inscription "Tentoonstelling van Visschers-Vereeniging Amsterdam 1861." This small but significant piece of art serves as a historical record of a specific event and highlights the importance of fishing in Dutch society.
