This 1827 medal by Grun commemorates the construction of a new road between Bastogne and Marche-en-Famenne, a project undertaken under the reign of William I, King of the Netherlands. The front depicts a profile portrait of the king, while the back features an inscription in Latin. This small, circular medal is a tangible example of how historical events, like infrastructure projects, were memorialized in artwork during this period.
