This 1899 medal, created by Alexandre-Louis-Marie Charpentier, depicts François Coppée, a prominent French poet and playwright. The medal features a profile portrait of Coppée on the right side, with an inscription surrounding it, and a bust-length profile of Napoleon I on the left. The medal is a stunning example of the realistic portraiture favored in 19th-century medallic art, highlighting Charpentier's artistic skill and his keen eye for capturing the likeness of his subject.
