rdfs:label: 1850~, United Kingdom
rdfs:comment: Cast bronze medal and leather box lined with silk. Cast bronze medal and leather box lined with silk, Great Britain, ca. 1850 Object Type Five different official medals were produced in bronze for the Great Exhibition. The Council medal, Prize medal and Jurors medal were the main awards, while the Exhibitors and For Services medals were less prestigious. This is the Exhibitors medal that was designed by William Wyon (1795-1851), Chief Engraver at the Royal Mint at the time of the Exhibition. The obverse (or front) has a portrait of Prince Albert who was President of the Royal Commission for the Exhibition. The reverse has a terrestrial globe, with a dove resting on the top, and an inscription. There were nearly 14,000 exhibitors in the Exhibition, and each received a medal like this, along with a certificate and a copy of the reports of the juries. People Miss Sarah Ann Cunliffe, Inventor, of Saffron Walden was awarded this medal for her 'Infant's knitted robe'. She did not win any special prize but her work had been selected from among the many thousands submitted for display. Materials & Making The medal was struck from a die. In this method, metal blanks were placed between two hardened-steel dies which were then hit with great force. On impact, the softer bronze 'flowed' into all the hollows and spaces in the die. This technique produced finished medals in huge numbers with hardly any loss of detail or clarity. The original dies for the Great Exhibition medals came to light some years ago in the stores of the V&A and are now on display in Gallery 64. MEDAL-WINNING SHIRT Dress shirts of this period were often enriched with fine embroidery. The official catalogue of the Exhibition described this as a shirt of peculiar construction. This may refer to the holes for the studs, a relatively new invention. The company that made this shirt was awarded a bronze medal in it's class. [27/03/2003]
