The medal features a profile portrait of Émile Zola, a prominent French novelist known for his naturalistic literary style, surrounded by the inscription "Hommage à Émile Zola." This piece, currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Zola's influence and the artist's skillful portrayal of his subject. The medal's small size and circular shape are characteristic of the genre, making it a collectible and historically significant artifact.
