This 1886 medal by Jules-Clément Chaplain, titled "In Honor of the Sculptor Eugene Guillaume," depicts a profile portrait of the artist Eugene Guillaume on one side, while the other features a seated female figure representing the art of sculpture. The detail of the medal is remarkable for its small size and its intricate design, reflecting the fine craftsmanship of the French medallic tradition. The medal, now held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, serves as a testament to the artistry of both Eugène Guillaume and Jules-Clément Chaplain.
