"Silver Medallion, St Anthony Carrying The Infant Jesus On One Side And An Engraving On The Other."
Beautiful silver medallion, with a view on each side. On the obverse, a small gouache painting on paper, representing St. Anthony holding Jesus in his arms, some color loss in places, related to wear, on the reverse, a black and white engraving, representing a priest in profile, holding a crucifix, a skull and a branch of fleur-de-lis placed in front of him. The engraving seems more recent than the painting. The mounting is in solid silver, decorated with a twist in the middle. Provenance: Russia. Presence of hallmarks on the bail. p
