    What a beautiful portrait! What is the size of this piece?

    Is "Siet ske" the name of the artist or the name of the person pictured? Does the "A? 15" indicate the person's age?

    A very attractive medal that I haven't seen before!

    I believe that the medal is 48mm square. Sietske was the daughter of the Dutch artist Wienecke. I do believe that it shows her at age 15. I found another medal which described the obverse, "Sietske Wienecke, dochter van de kunstenaar 1914."
