Commentary
Médaille avec un assez rare poinçon Proue (utilisé entre 1842 et 1945), signée DEPAULIS F.
Abraham Duquesne naît en 1610 à Dieppe (Seine-Maritime) dans une famille huguenote d’armateurs, de corsaires et de marchands. Il est le fils d'Abraham Duquesne (v. 1570-1635), capitaine de vaisseau, calviniste et de son épouse, Marthe de Caux, tous deux originaires de Normandie. Né Roturier, il fut anobli par les titres de baron d'Indret en 1650 et marquis du Quesne en 1682.
Dès son plus jeune âge il suit les pas de son père. Il passe son enfance à Dieppe, qui possède alors la plus grande école d'hydrographie française.
En 1627, à l'âge de dix-sept ans, il entre dans la marine royale et sert à bord du Petit Saint-André, comme lieutenant de son père. Son père tombé malade, il le remplace et capture un navire marchand hollandais, le Berger, qu'il ramène à Dieppe et qui lui est adjugé par le Parlement de la ville. L'année suivante, il commande un vaisseau lors du siège de La Rochelle contre les armées réformées commandées par Jean Guiton, qui deviendra par la suite son beau-frère. S'il se bat dans le camp des armées royales, Duquesne reste cependant très attaché à sa religion.
Il sert sous Louis XIII pendant la guerre de Trente Ans et se distingue en plusieurs occasions, notamment aux combats de Tarragone et du cap de Gata, mais doit quitter la marine en 1644 après avoir perdu un navire.
Pendant les troubles de la minorité de Louis XIV, il obtient de Mazarin l'autorisation de servir dans la marine royale suédoise, en compagnie de son frère. Il prend part à la guerre de Torstenson qui oppose le royaume de Suède au Danemark et se distingue au combat de Fehmarn en prenant le navire amiral du commandant de la flotte danois Pros Mund. Rentré en France, il réintègre la Marine royale et est envoyé en 1669 au secours de Candie, assiégée par les Turcs. Il prend part à la guerre de Hollande (1672-1678) et combat à la bataille de Solebay (1672) et à Alicudi (janvier 1676), mais c'est à la bataille d'Agosta (avril 1676) et à celle de Palerme qu'il se distingue tout particulièrement. Il termine sa carrière avec le grade de lieutenant général des armées navales, freiné dans son avancement par sa religion qu'il refusera d'abjurer malgré l'insistance de Louis XIV et de ses conseillers (Colbert et Bossuet)..
Medal with a fairly rare Proue hallmark (used between 1842 and 1945), signed DEPAULIS F.

Historical background
LOUIS-PHILIPPE I
(7/08/1830-24/02/1848)
Born in Paris in 1773, Louis-Philippe is the eldest son of Louis-Philippe Joseph, Duke of Orléans (Philippe-Égalité), guillotined in 1793 for corruption after having voted for the death of his cousin Louis XVI. He successively bears the titles of Duke of Valois, Chartres and Orleans from 1793. Favorable to the Revolution, like his father, he nevertheless had to take refuge in Switzerland then he traveled to Scandinavia, the United States and finally settled in England in 1801.. The Restoration allows him to find the immense possessions of his family but he remains considered as a potential rival by Louis XVIII who receives him coldly. Refugee in England during the Hundred Days, he returned to France in 1817. Greedy for gain, he gave his support to the opposition represented by the liberal party while relying on the possessing upper middle class.. The days of 1830 gave him the opportunity to come to power after having adhered to the tricolor flag and multiplied the promises. He became on July 31, 1830 lieutenant general of the kingdom then king of the French on August 7. His reign, under a liberal appearance, will become that of the bourgeoisie and business circles while the oppositions (Legitimists, Bonapartists, Republicans and Socialists) are maintained illegally.. His peace policy and his authority then earned him significant prestige with the European courts.. The banker Laffitte is Prime Minister. La Fayette is one of the architects of this "bourgeois revolution". On March 13, 1831, Casimir Périer replaced Laffitte. France intervenes in Belgium in August 1831 to counter the Dutch. The Legitimists, with the rue des Prouvaires plot, try to establish Henry V as king while his mother tries to raise the Vendée. She was arrested on December 3, 1832 in Nantes.. The cholera epidemic kills more than ten thousand people in Paris, including Casimir Périer. General Lamarque's funeral was the occasion for an attempted republican uprising, crushed in blood (see. Wretched). The French occupy Antwerp on December 23, 1832.. Fieschi's attack of July 28, 1835 against Louis-Philippe kills eighteen people including Marshal Mortier. The first Paris-Orléans railway line and the July column were inaugurated on October 24, 1837 and July 28, 1840 respectively.. The year 1840 marked a turning point in the regime, with great ministerial instability before having the Guizot ministry ("Get rich!").. Prince Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, after a second putsch attempt, was sentenced to life imprisonment and locked up in Fort Ham from which he escaped in 1846. Napoleon's ashes are brought from Saint Helena and transferred to Les Invalides. From 1841, Louis-Philippe committed France to the path of the total conquest of Algeria, already begun under Charles X, while a major economic boom developed in Metropolitan France.. A law in 1841 limits child labor to 12 hours. The first serious railway accident took place on the Paris-Versailles line and caused 45 deaths on May 8, 1842. On July 13, the Duke of Orleans, the king's eldest son, died accidentally. On May 16, 1843, the Duke of Aumale took the smala of Abd-el-Kader who managed to escape. Bugeaud, Governor of Algeria, is made Marshal. 1843 is also the beginning of the Entente Cordiale and the visit of Queen Victoria to France. The French beat the Moroccans at Isly. Abd-el-Kader surrenders on December 23, 1847. The refusal of reforms leads to the fall of the regime during the Banquet Campaign and Louis-Philippe, dethroned on February 24, 1848, takes refuge in England after having abdicated in favor of his grandson..
