This bronze medal, created by David van der Kellen in 1831, commemorates the students from Groningen and Franeker who were called up to serve in the Dutch army. One side features a lion, a symbol of courage and strength, while the other displays a laurel wreath and an inscription expressing gratitude to the "brave, loyal, and courageous citizens and curators" who supported the students. This small but significant artwork is a testament to the Dutch national identity and its historical appreciation for patriotism and civic duty.
