Thiebaud

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Augsburg Medal obverse by Thiebaud shows a bronze medal with a brown patina. The medal is circular and features a raised design. Two women are standing on a base in the center, surrounded by coats of arms. The woman on the left holds a cornucopia and a floral wreath. The woman on the right holds a branch with leaves. Above them are three more coats of arms. The outer edge of the medal has a raised border with text. The text on the top half reads "FEBER MD CXXXI M" and "IUDIC GELIIN". The rest of the text on the medal is not legible. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray to light gray. The medal casts a shadow on the surface below it.
