Pair of French Empire Bronzed Lead Medals
Two early 19th century French Empire bronzed lead medals or roundels.

Each portrait is signed under the shoulder \"Andrieu F\" on the single portrait and \"Andrieu Fecit\" on the double.
The medals were probably struck in 1810 to commemorate the marriage of Napoleon to Marie Louise.
The sculptor Bertrand Andrieu (1761-1822) was a pupil of sculptor and medallist Nicolas Gatteaux (1763-1832).
The medals are in very good condition. (Circa 1810)
