Description

FRANCE. Napoleon as First Consul/Restoration of the Cisalpine Republic Silver Medal, Year VIII (1799/1800). Turin Mint. PCGS SPECIMEN-55.
Bramsen-42; Julius-802. By C. Lavy. Obverse: Bare head left; Reverse: Nude Hercules, with facial features of Napoleon, uplifting female allegory of the Cisalpine Republic; in background, Victory standing right, affixing shield to palm tree; rising sun over mountaintop at a distance. Edge: Plain. Quite deeply toned and attractive, this SCARCE medal yields some enchanting brilliance remaining in the fields. Furthering its overall appeal that much more is its strong Neoclassical design upon the reverse, an aspect ever-celebrated in the Napoleonic series of medals.

Estimate: $2500.00- $3000.00

1799/1800年拿破侖收復阿尔卑斯共和國銀章。
出自 C. Lacy 之手。正面為朝左頭像,反面為五官肖似拿破侖的裸體赫丘利正在扶起阿爾卑斯山共和國女性形象,勝利女神將盾牌置於棕櫚樹上,遠方旭日照耀山頂。包漿色澤頗深,珍罕銀章,底板光芒閃爍。反面設計帶有強烈的新古典主義風格,是拿破侖系列中深受追捧的一版。
