Intrede van Filips V te Napels 1702

Ferdinand de Saint Urbain's "Intrede van Filips V te Napels" is a bronze medal commemorating the entry of King Philip V of Spain into Naples in 1702. The obverse depicts a bust of Philip V in profile, while the reverse features a figure of Neptune holding a trident, symbolizing the power of the sea and the king's dominion. This small-scale work, measuring just 5.1 cm in diameter, was likely commissioned as a commemorative piece for the event, showcasing the artist's skill in creating detailed and intricate medallic designs.
