COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS, British Historical Medals, Sir Christopher Wren (1632-1723), architect, scientist and mathematician, cast Bronze Medal, by Gottlieb (George) Daniel Gaab (c.1714-1784), mid 18th Century, bust left, hair long, in buttoned shirt and loose mantle, CHRISTOP WREN EQVES AVR & ACHITECT - OBIIT AD 1723 ÆT 91, rev the West front St Paul’s Cathedral, VNVM PRO CVNCTIS FAMA LOQVATVR OPVS – INCEPT AD 1676 / PERFECT AD 1711, with AEDESS PAVLI LOND in exergue and signed G D GAAB SCVLP, rosette stops in legends to both sides, 99.5mm (MI 458/69; Eimer 497; Eidlitz 1073; JT pp.25-26). A superb contemporary example of this extremely rare medal, the images and lettering carefully tooled, extremely fine. The portrait is a reversal of the ivory bust, carved on an oval, by David Le Marchand (1674-1726), now in the National Portrait Gallery. Gaab exhibited two medallions of Sir Christopher Wren and of St Paul’s Cathedral at the Free Society from 5 King’s Street, Seven Dials in 1783, marking the 60th anniversary Wren’s death. The medal commemorates Wren’s greatest achievement, but before this he was a founding member of the Royal Society, had the chair of Astronomy at Gresham College (London) and was later the fourth Savilian Professor of Astronomy at Oxford.
