This 18th-century engraving by Danish artist Meno Haas depicts the two sides of a medal dedicated to Carl Marcus Tuscher. The left side features a bust of Tuscher, while the right side shows an eagle with crossed swords and a feather. Both sides are inscribed with Latin text. The engraving, now part of the Statens Museum for Kunst collection, is a fine example of the detailed and meticulous craftsmanship of the period. This historical art piece offers insight into 18th-century portraiture and medal design.
