No. 14. DUKE OF WELLINGTON.

Obverse.---Head of his Grace, by Brenet.
Reverse.—The Culonade of the Louvre is inscribed at top.
The Colonade occupies the centre and diameter of the Medal.
inscribed," The English Army enters Paris the 7th
of July, 1815." This is a faithful and neatly executed repre-
&Potation of 't Ire Louvre, an edifice very properly selected to
record the entry of the Briti9h into Paris, as it was the great
depository of the pictures and statues which 'Napoleon had
Obtained from the different countries he had conquered.

No. 15. NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE.

Obverse.—Bust of Boonaparte in big military dress.

Reverse.—A British man of wdr, in full sail, with the Im-
perial Eagle on the flag staff. The- Eagle on the staff is an
admirable and satirical contrast to a Medal in the 'Napoleon
series by the Count Denon, in which Napoleon is represented
as a Hennles at Boulogne, preparing for the invasion of
England. Buonaparte is standing on the quarter-deck. An-
other ship suet, beyond. The legend—" Surreliderenl to his
Britannic Majesty's ship Bellerophon, Captain Maitland."
On the exergne is the date of this event, " 15th July, 1815."
Brenet, f. Mudiv, d.

An exquisite example of nautical Medal engraving, elabo-
rately exact and finished. 'l'hc bust has the fullest relief, ex-
cellent character of flesh, and a beautiful style of outline arid
finishing. It was engraved from a marble bust by Canova,
and at the time was allowed to be a correct likeness, although
at the period of his surrender Buonaparte must have been
consideralily altered. But how justly may we say of him, with
our belovedShakspeare, that after having

.
" Toueb'ti the highest point of all his greatiess, be
," Fell like a bright exhalation in the eveunkg."
