Art Deco bronze medallion, signed, on its wooden base (1937)

P. Turin was a great French medal maker and sculptor.
After studying at the School of Fine Arts in Paris, he exhibited medals for the first time at the Salon des artistes français in 1911.
 In 1920, he was awarded the first Grand Prix de Rome in medal and fine stone engraving for ‘Une figure de la Paix qui s'avance une épée à la main,’ then a gold medal at the specialised exhibition of 1925.
In 1928, competing for the Paris Mint, he was chosen to create a new type of currency with the head of Marianne wearing the Phrygian cap, crowned with an olive wreath on the obverse and with wheat ears on the back: it's the 'Turin type'. 
In 1937, he made a medal for the universal exhibition in Paris.

Width (medal alone): 5.5 cm
