Reuven Rubin, born in Romania in 1893, came to Israel in 1912 to study in Bezalel. He remained in Israel for a year and then returned to Paris. During the First World War he was in Romania. He returned to Israel in 1922. His first paintings reflect the feeling of the revival of Jewish life in the Land of Israel. He later began to paint scenery in Israel, and sometimes painted Biblical stories. Three lithographic albums were published in the 1960's whose topics were: King David, Biblical visions and the Prophets. He also painted many portraits, including several self portraits. The medal was issued as part of the "Reuven Self Portrait" exhibition which opened in 1993 in 'Beit Reuven'.
The medallion is in a designated wooden box with a velvet base. Very fine condition.
