Description
The three medallions were issued in a series by the Danish porcelain manufacturer Royal Copenhagen in 1849. They were modelled after reliefs made by the Danish sculptor Berthel Thorvaldsen (1770-1844).
Provenance
The Städtisches Museum Göttingen bought all three medallions [called wall plates in the entry book] in May 1940 from the merchant Johann Eisenmann for a total of ten Reichsmark. Since the business records of this dealer have not yet been found, the previous owner of the medallions is still unknown. The medallions have no ownership mark or stamp.
