Belgium Portait of of Belgian Revolution Veteran (1830/1) with distinctions

[saxcob]

The distinctions of this Sous-lieutenant of the 12th regiment look like:

1. la médaille pour actes de courage, devouement et humanité (1847-1867)

2. Iron Cross 1830

3. l'insigne de la société des blessés de septembre 1830

Is that correct?

Hallo saxcob, I think that it is correct.

The non official medal from the" société des blessés de septembre" is the model (with king Léopold head) and was, according to my info, given between 1830 and 1834. An other model of this medal has the date 1830 instead of the king's head.

A fine painting you have there.

Best regards, Belgoman
