Context
The famous Una & the Lion design of 1839 which was created by the celebrated 19th century numismatic sculptor William Wyon. The theme for the coin was drawn from Edmund Spenser’s poem Faerie Queene which tells the tale of Una & the Lion which follows Princess Una after St. George had slayed the dragon and rescued her. During the course of their travels, Una met a lion who was so mesmerised by her beauty he became her companion and protector. For the design, Una was modelled on the 19 year old Queen Victoria and shows Una, representing truth and purity gracefully pointing the way forward with the lion beside her. The lion passant gardant is an ancient symbol of Britain. Below images from: © Lawrences Auctioneers, Somerset UK
