The front and back of a bronze medal show scenes in raised relief. On the left, a woman in a long skirt carries a lyre, her hand raised toward a stylized tree near the word HARMONY. On the right, figures and an animal populate a landscape with vertical text reading CREATES and TRANQUILITY. The warm, brown patina glints off the smooth, rounded contours of the figures and buildings against the dark background.
