WORLD ART MEDALS France, Comune de Paris, 1871, a large uniface cast bronze medal, unsigned, armour-clad figure of La Republique taking care of a wounded insurgent, 154mm. Very fine, interesting; with suspension ring mounted on the back (£60-80)

Perhaps related to a masonic chapter; the medallist has clearly depicted emblems of freemasonry on the armour worn by the figure
