This 1563 bronze medal by Jacques Jonghelinck portrays Jan Walravenz, a rederijker (a member of a Dutch rhetoric society) from Brussels. The medal, measuring 10.5 cm in diameter, presents a profile portrait of Walravenz on one side and an inscription on the other, detailing his accomplishments and the year of its creation. This commemorative piece showcases Jonghelinck's talent for capturing likeness and detail in a small format, typical of Renaissance medal-making.
