HAHN, HERMANN (Germ.). Contemporary Sculptor and Medallist, residing at Munich. At the Frankfort Exhibition of Modern Medals in 1900, I saw a Portrait-medal of Bismarck and Moltke by him, executed in imitation of the antique; also another of Pettenkofer. These medals, which are struck, are of very pleasing effect, espe- cially the latter. Bibliography. — Moderne Medaille, 1900, p. 5.
