This silver medal, created in 1622 by Dutch artist Adriaan Waterloos, is a double-sided portrait of Antonius Triest, the bishop of Ghent. One side features a profile portrait of Triest, while the other shows a figure standing next to a cross. The inscription on the medal, "Antonius Triest Lus Gandensis," identifies the subject, while the other side's text, likely related to the bishop's faith, is not entirely clear. The medal's small size and intricate detail are characteristic of Waterloos's work, demonstrating his mastery of miniature portraiture.
