Russian Commemorative Medallion Plaque
Russian Commemorative Medallion Plaque issued by The State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg Russia in memory of the Napoleon War. After the original by Artist F. Tolstoy (1783-1873) in memory of the Napoleon War, 1820. The master depicted the scene of retreat of the French Army behind the river Nieman in an allegoric way. A figure of a bare elder, leaning his elbows on an urn with water, symbolizes the river Nieman. Calmness of figure contrasts with a panic state of retreating Napoleon.
