Belgium – Gilt Bronze Beekeeping Prize Medal by Hart, Waassche Bijenteelersmaatschappij, Temse 1894, Leopold II
Obverse:
Bearded portrait of King Leopold II of Belgium facing left. Legend: "LEOPOLD II KONING DER BELGEN". Below truncation: "HART F.". The medal is topped with a highly ornate royal crown and suspension loop.
Reverse:
Within a richly decorated wreath of fruit and flowers:
"MAATSCHAPPIJ DE WAASSCHE BIEENTEELERS / PRIJSKAMP / TE VRACENE / 16 7BER / 1894". The composition includes pears, pomegranates, roses, and a ribbon bow at the base.
Historical context:
Awarded by the Waassche Society of Beekeepers (Maatschappij der Bijenteelers), this medal commemorates a prize competition held in Temse (Tevracene) on 16 September 1894. Designed by the well-known Belgian medallist Hart, the piece reflects both the artistic richness of late 19th-century agricultural medals and the importance of beekeeping in Belgian rural life. The suspended crown adds ceremonial gravitas.
