Silver religious medal dedicated to La Moreneta de Montserrat, Catalonia, made between the 1930s and 1940s. A devotional piece with notable relief work and a strong link to Catalan spiritual tradition.
The obverse shows a representation of the Virgin of Montserrat framed by an ornamental composition of geometric and popular inspiration. The reverse bears the inscription "N. S. MONTSERRAT", clearly identifying the advocation. During the first half of the 20th century, these types of medals were acquired as pilgrimage souvenirs, personal protection objects, or expressions of Marian devotion. Their design and lightness make them an interesting piece for collectors of sacred art, religious medals, and historical religious souvenirs.
