Conçue par William Wyon (1795-1851) en 1839 pour commémorer le début du règne de Victoria (en 1837), la pièce de 5 livres “Una and the lion” est reconnue comme l’une des plus belles pièces britanniques. Victoria, accompagnée d’un lion, avance à gauche, avec la devise “Que Dieu dirige mes pas”. La jeune reine, alors âgée de 20 ans, est représentée comme Lady Una, d’après un personnage du poème The Faerie Queene d’Edmund Spencer en 1590. Cette conception audacieuse est la première représentation d’un monarque britannique sous forme d’un personnage fictif : le lion qui représente l’Angleterre est dirigé par la reine Victoria, en tant qu’Una, qui le guide de son sceptre

1839年、ヴィクトリア女王の即位(1837年)を記念し、ウィリアム・ワイオン(1795-1851年)の図案で製造された5ポンド貨「ウナとライオン」は、英国コインの最も美しい代表作として有名です。 ライオンを伴い左へ向かうヴィクトリアと「神よ、我が行く手を導きたまえ」の銘文。詩人エドマンド・スペンサーの代表作『妖精の女王』(1590年)の登場人物レディ・ウナが、当時20才だった若き女王を象徴しています。この大胆な着想が、架空の人物を用いて英国君主を表すという最初の作品となりました。英国を表すライオンを、笏を持ったウナ(ヴィクトリア女王)が導く様子が描かれています。

Conceived by William Wyon (1795-1851) in 1839 to commemorate the beginning of queen Victoria’s reign (1837), the “Una and the lion” 5 pounds is considered one of the most beautiful british coins. Victoria, standing with a lion, is moving left, with the motto “May God direct my steps” above her. The young queen, 20 years old, is represented as Lady Una, from Edmund Spencer’s The Faerie Queene, a poem written in 1590. This is the first time a british monarch is represented as a fictitious character : England as a lion is guided by Una, personified by queen Victoria, and her sceptre.
