Historical context:
This bronze plaquette was issued in 1949 to honor P. L. Dupont, who served as president of the Fédération des Industries Céramiques de Belgique during the critical post-World War II reconstruction period (1945–1949). The work was created by Belgian sculptor Édouard D’Hont, known for his expressive realism. The plaquette likely served as a formal tribute in recognition of Dupont's leadership within the national ceramics sector.
