This bronze medal, created by David van der Kellen in 1836, commemorates the bicentenary of Utrecht University. The obverse depicts a female figure, likely Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, holding a spear and shield, representing the University. The reverse features a laurel wreath and an inscription in Latin celebrating the University's achievements. The medal, a testament to Dutch artistic talent, is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
