Description: Popis produktu: This commemorative medal from 1940 is a newly minted piece that commemorates historical moments associated with Dutch neutrality and its consequences during the Second World War. The obverse of the medal features a crowned shield with a Dutch lion, flanqué tulips, and the inscription 'Nederlands Neutralität' along with the motto 'Je Maintiendrai'. This design expresses the determination of the Netherlands to remain neutral until 10 May 1940, when it was drawn into the conflict. The symbolism of the lion and the tulips is significant to the Dutch national identity and is also a reminder of the country's strength and resilience. The reverse of the medal features the dramatic scene "Die Fliehenden Holländer", depicting the family's escape from the Nazi invasion, complete with swastika and symbols of war. This image highlights the hardships and forced retreat of the inhabitants as they faced the brutal military aggression. The motif is very strong and recalls the hardships of the civilian population, who suffered heavy losses in the war. This medal is a powerful commemorative object that combines national pride with tragic moments in history. Foto:
