Anton Scharff’s “To Commemorate the Silver Wedding of Adolf and Albertine Bachofen von Echt” is a commemorative medal created in 1884 to celebrate the couple's 25th wedding anniversary. The medal is divided into two sections, one side features a profile view of Adolf and Albertine, while the other side depicts the couple in a more stylized, romantic setting. The medal's inscription commemorates the event and features the date of the anniversary, “16 Mai 1884.” The medal is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
