Anna van Hannover, prinses van Oranje-Nassau 1748

This silver medal, created in 1748 by Dutch medallist Nicolaas van Swinderen, depicts Anna van Hannover, Princess of Orange-Nassau, on one side. The other side features a female figure representing the goddess Fortuna, with a cornucopia overflowing with prosperity and a rising sun symbolizing good fortune, accompanied by the Latin inscription "Pils Votis Respondet Eventus" meaning "Events Respond to Wishes." This medal likely commemorates the birth of Anna van Hannover, princess of Orange, and alludes to her future prosperity. The medal is a prime example of 18th-century medallic art, featuring intricate details and symbolic imagery.
