100 Great Works of Art Re-Created in Metal
A Tribute to the World’s Greatest Artists by John Pinches
Medallic Art in Gold Plated Sterling Silver
Starting in 1974 the famous medallist John Pinches created a set of Sterling Silver Medallions, depicting one hundred of the greatest works of art of all time. Each medallion is, in our opinion, a beautifully engraved rendition of the original, with very sensitive cropping to suit the round format of the medallion. These are large medallions, diameter 50mm (over 2″), and contains over 2 ounces of Hallmarked Sterling Silver. The Obverse side of each shows the artwork, and the Reverse side shows details in raised lettering within a classical wreath, of the title, date and artist.
