Shot of the Week
Nach Paris (To Paris) 1914 - World War I British Satirical Medal. Here's the back story; in 1914, the Germans struck an interesting propaganda medal designed by Artur Loewental. The medal was a tribute to General Alexander von Kluck, in anticipation of his capturing Paris in 1914. However, the German advance on Paris failed thanks to the successful counterattack of the Allies on the Marne.
Lowental’s image of the “Fury of War,” with torches in both hands, riding towards Paris, captivated other artists. It was later parodied by the French artist, Edmund Dulac (1882-1953), who designed a medal to commemorate the “turn of the tide,” in which a skeletal female figure sits astride a skeletal horse facing right, holding a burnt-out torch in either hand. The inscription reads “1917 NACH HAUSE." The German design was also used in Allied war propaganda emphasizing German atrocities during WWI: the burning of Louvain in 1914 during the “rape of Belgium”; the sinking of the British ocean liner in 1915; the execution of a British nurse, Edith Cavell, for helping several allied soldiers escape from occupied Belgium in 1915; the execution of a British mariner, Captain Charles Fryatt in 1916; and remembering victims of the European cities bombed by German zeppelins between 1914-1918.

Is it time to invest in quality coin photography?
As the online world of numismatics grows, quality coin photography is increasingly important. Eye appeal is king; it's what you look for when buying coins and how you want to display your collection. With its power to capture vital detailing and showcase toning and character, investing in quality photographs is always a wise decision.
What are our customers saying?
Coin Photography Studio…. was the missing piece in our marketing efforts that we needed to correctly and truly express the value and image of our coins online. Denis is a true master craftsman in every way. The value Denis had added to our sales far exceeds the reasonable cost to capture our entire line of products. I can highly recommend Denis to any serious collector, mint, or museum. He has shot almost 100 coins for us and every print is crafted to perfection. We could not be more pleased.
Tim Ransom, Owner, The Republic National Mint
As a coin collector, having high-quality images of my collection is important to me. I have found Denis to provide excellent photographs, customized to my requirements, with great service, and at a reasonable price.
