Medaillon met portret van Éléonore-Louis Godefroi Cavaignac after 1834

This medallion, created by Achille Collas after 1834, depicts a profile portrait of Éléonore-Louis Godefroi Cavaignac. The work showcases Collas's skill in creating a realistic and detailed portrait within the confines of a circular format. The image is rendered in a delicate, almost three-dimensional style, highlighting the sitter's features and emphasizing the texture of his clothing. The medallion's compact size and the artist's focus on the subject's likeness suggest a personal or commemorative purpose, perhaps intended for private use or a tribute to a significant figure.
