This beautiful 1900 Summer Games silvered bronze medal, presented for rowing, measures approximately 60mm x 42mm and was designed by F. Vernon. One side of the medal features a victorious athlete standing on a podium inscribed "Regates a la Voile," in raised letters along the bottom, with the reverse showing a winged goddess scattering laurel branches over the Paris Exposition grounds, and reads, “Paris 1900, Republique Francaise Exposition Universelle,” and the artist’s name along the bottom edge. In extra fine condition. Stunning display piece from the 2nd Olympiad.
