This is a medal by Achille Collas depicting French painter and illustrator Alfred Johannot. The medal was created after 1831, showing a profile of Johannot with a sculpted, almost three-dimensional quality. The inscription “ALFRED JOHANNOT” is visible along the edge of the medal. Medals were often used as commemorative tokens during this period, highlighting the artist's contribution to French art. This piece serves as a testament to the skill of Collas, a prominent French medalist, and a powerful reminder of the legacy of Johannot.
