Commentary
La vie et l’œuvre de Laurent-Joseph Hart (Anvers, 5 novembre 1810 - Bruxelles, 10 janvier 1860) ont déjà fait l’objet de nombreuses publications. Reconnu comme l’un des plus célèbres graveurs belges, Hart reçut une série impressionnante d’honneurs, de distinctions et de marques de prestige. Graveur de la Maison du Roi, Hart avait réussi, tout au long de sa courte carrière (il mourra, terrassé par la maladie, à l’aube de sa 49ème année), à se construire une solide réputation d’artiste mais aussi de technicien de la médaille.

Léopold Ier de Belgique (en néerlandais, Leopold I van België), prince de Saxe-Cobourg et Gotha, duc en Saxe, né prince Léopold Georges Christian Frédéric de Saxe-Cobourg-Saalfeld à Cobourg (en Saxe-Cobourg-Saalfeld) le 16 décembre 1790 et mort le 10 décembre 1865 au palais de Laeken (en Belgique), est un prince allemand de la maison de Saxe-Cobourg et Gotha devenu le premier roi des Belges.
Après la guerre d'indépendance grecque (1821-1832), Léopold se voit offrir le trône de Grèce qu'il refuse, craignant que la situation ne soit trop instable. En revanche, le Congrès du nouveau Royaume de Belgique le choisit en raison de ses relations diplomatiques avec les maisons royales d'Europe, il est élu premier souverain belge le 4 juin 1831 et accepte. Il prête le serment constitutionnel le 21 juillet 1831 date devenant celle de la fête nationale belge.

Historical background
BELGIUM - KINGDOM OF BELGIUM - LEOPOLD I
(4/06/1831-10/12/1865)
Leopold (16/12/1790-10/12/1865) is the son of François de Saxe-Cobourg and the uncle of Victoria I. He fights Napoleon in the Russian army. Naturalized English in 1816, he married Charlotte of Hanover and found himself a widower the following year. Léopold had just refused the crown of Greece when he was elected King of the Belgians on June 4, 1831. The following year, he married Louise d'Orléans (1812-1850), the daughter of Louis-Philippe. She gives him three children including Leopold II and Charlotte, the unfortunate wife of Maximilian of Austria, shot in Mexico. He is morganatically married to the actress Caroline Bauer from whom he must separate to marry the daughter of the King of the French. The London Conference of July 1831 settled territorial problems and the treaty of eighteen articles was accepted by the National Congress on July 9, 1831. Leopold was triumphantly welcomed on July 21, 1831. He had to fight against the Dutch army and received the nickname of "shield of Belgium", safeguarding the independence of the "flat country" against the Prussia of William I and the France of Napoleon III. He relies politically on England.
