This is a painting of two bronze medals. The painting depicts two distinct medals side by side. The medal on the left displays a profile portrait with inscriptions curving around the edge, while the right medal shows a narrative scene with figures and the year "1847" inscribed at the bottom. The entire composition is set on a plain background that contrasts with the bronze of the medals.
