This stunning antique medallion depicts Diane de Poitiers, the famed mistress of King Henry II of France and one of the most influential women of the French Renaissance. Her graceful profile is rendered in fine bronze relief, encircled by a delicate filigree border that rests on a background of deep black velvet. The portrait is set within an ornate gilded frame adorned with scrolling acanthus and rococo-style flourishes, capturing the elegance and grandeur of 19th-century craftsmanship.
A timeless homage to beauty, power, and art, this piece reflects the romantic fascination with French history that swept through Europe during the Victorian and Grand Tour eras.
Perfect for hanging in a gallery wall, study, or boudoir—pair with other portrait miniatures or gilt relics for an authentically European aesthetic.
