Achievement of Brulart [reverse]

French 17th Century

National Gallery of Art

This is a photograph of a coin or medallion. The metallic object features an embossed coat of arms at its center, with a shield divided into sections and surrounded by heraldic ornamentation including a helmet. The edge of the coin has an inscription in a circular pattern, possibly in Latin, giving it a historical or regal appearance. The high contrast and precise focus of the photograph highlight the textural details and craftsmanship of the coin.
