Jean Mauger, Louis XIV (1638-1715), Raising of the Siege of Guise 1650, ca. 1702, bronze, 1 5/8 in. (4.1 cm.), The Guise Castle has a turbulent history of ownership between the English, Spanish, and French. Although the majority of its history was spent under the control of the French, there was a constant threat from Spaniards eager to obtain the castle. This medal celebrates France's victory over Spain in 1650, when Spain launched its final attempt to capture the castle, largely under the leadership of the Duke of Lorraine, a loyal ally to Louis XIV. Accepting the credit for the victory, however, Louis XIV integrated this moment into his uniform series to illustrate France's continued triumph over Spain.
