Description:
Louis XVIII quitte Paris, France. This is a royalist medal depicting France's sorrow at the departure of Louis XVIII. A slutty woman, in the midst of a bad hair day, named Discord, steps off the boat, kicks over 'Public Felicity' and probably immediately shouted 'Where's the vino?' On the other hand we have Mom, impeccably dressed, in the process of protecting the fleur-de-lys from the ruffian off the boat. Mom is named Gallia and as such we realize that she is the true 'France'.
