Tweede eeuwfeest van de Reformatie 1717

This silver medal, "Tweede eeuwfeest van de Reformatie," was created by Georg Wilhelm Vestner in 1717 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. The medal features two sides. One side depicts a bust of Martin Luther, a German theologian, priest, and professor of theology who is credited as a key figure in the Protestant Reformation. The other side features a cityscape, symbolizing the spread of the Reformation across Europe. The medal, now in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the artistry of Vestner, a significant medallist of his time.
