Medallion (obverse)

Marie Alexandre Lucien Coudray

Cleveland Museum of Art

Medallion with a bronze-colored, arched rectangular plaque. The plaque depicts a relief sculpture of a woman sitting on the ground or a low seat. Her head is covered by a headscarf with frills. She wears a long-sleeved dress with a high neckline. The woman's face is bowed down and her hands are in front of her. The right hand holds the left foot. The background of the plaque has an embossed, textured pattern. The bottom of the plaque has raised lettering that appears to be a signature. The plaque stands on a white surface with a dark gray to black gradient background.
