Very Rare.
Magnificent and historically significant French medal struck on the occasion of the birth of Henri d'Artois, Duke of Bordeaux (1820-1883), who went down in history as the famous
"Child of the Miracle". Born on September 29, 1820, a few months after the assassination of his father Charles Ferdinand, Duke of Berry, the prince represented for the French legitimists the hope of continuity of the Bourbon dynasty.
Obverse: bust of the newborn facing left, laureate.
Circular legend with the prince's dynastic titles. Engraver Brenet’s signature on the bust cut.
Reverse: extraordinary allegorical composition in neoclassical taste. A female figure armed, symbol of France protected by Providence, presents the newborn to the divine rays while a dragon defeated lies at her feet. In exergue the birth date: 29 Septembre 1820.
A specimen of great artistic charm, characterized by clear reliefs and a pleasant antique brown patina. Medal particularly appreciated by collectors of French history, Restoration and 19th-century medallic art.
