Medallion by F. Montagny. Two bronze-colored, circular medallions are shown side by side. The left medallion features a raised relief of a winged man flying over a biplane. The man has wings protruding from his back and is outstretched horizontally. The biplane appears to be flying low over a ground with hills. The right medallion depicts a large ship with multiple stacks and a flag on the left. On the right is an empty rectangular plaque. In the background are waves and a bird flying over the ship. A bundle of wheat-like stalks appears on the bottom right. Two flying birds appear over the ship. The background of the image is a gradient from dark at the top to light at the bottom with the medallions casting a shadow to the bottom left.
