Jeremy Bentham modeled ca. 1830, cast before 1844 Medalist: Pierre Jean David d'Angers French Pierre-Jean David dAngers was the most prolific and one of the most important French sculptors of the first half of the nineteenth century. Throughout his almost fifty-year career (1819-1856) David remained true to his conviction that sculptural monuments dedicated to the achievements of great men and women most permanently and vividly express the greatness of a people.

Saint Mark ca. 1550 Attributed to Jean III Pénicaud French This set of four roundels (2013.967.1-.4) depicts the Evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, each identified by inscriptions and accompanied by their respective symbols: the angel, the lion, the ox and the eagle. Two different artists are detectable: Mark and Luke stand out as the work of an exceptionally talented practitioner, including some breathtakingly lovely touches in the application of the flesh tones, rendered in a thin red wash on top of the translucent whites, the curls of the saints' hair, and details like the showering gold at the base of Luke's halo..

Portrait Miniature of Prince William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland (1721-1765), c. 1755. Simon François Ravenet (French, 1706-1774). Enamel; framed: 10.4 x 8.3 cm (4 1/8 x 3 1/4 in.); unframed: 8.8 x 7 cm (3 7/16 x 2 3/4 in.). This portrait miniature depicts Prince William Augustus, the Duke of Cumberland and the youngest son of King George II. During his lifetime, the prince was greatly admired for his role in putting down the Jacobite Rising and defeating Prince Charles at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Accordingly, he is depicted here in profile wearing a steel breastplate or cuirass, a fur cloak, and armor depicting a lions head along his shoulder. These characteristics suggest that the work was inspired by a series of medals produced in the mid-1740s celebrating the history of Great Britain and Ireland.
