Beautiful medal by Wien Cobbenhagen, issued in 1982 by VPK (Association for Medal Art).
The whole is in neat condition. The first two photos are of the medal in question. The last two photos come from the VPK site, for a good impression of the medal.
In the work of Cobbenhagen, a student at the Rijksakademie, growth plays an important role. He has depicted growth elements in the deepened background of the medal in a natural and convincing way. A bulging seed pod and germinated plants are placed in a loose distribution, raised and deepened in the circle. As a result, the medal round can also be seen as a seed element. What is special is that what I see as plant-based could very well be insects. If there is a point where growth and movement play a dominant role, it is the Baroque. Cobbenhagen conceived the vignette of the Association on the reverse in that style. With graceful mobility, the two intertwined letters spread expansively across the surface of the coin in height and depth. (source website VPK)
