About the Item

Precious bronze medal designed by the master sculptor Godefroid Devreese and made by Fonson Cie in Belgium in 1939, equal to the one acquired by the British Museum in 2003, in which we can see a portrait of Julien Bernheim on one side and read the inscription L 'innovation a ses Collaborateurs d'un quart de Siecle Madame Jeanne Hendrickx 1914-1939, on its other side, a beautiful representation of the work showing a man walking uphill, carrying a bag on his shoulder while an angel flies next to him, accompanying him on their way. Signed by Devreese and the Fonson Foundry.
