Summary
Description |
The medal's designer David Watkins included, in his words, 'the goddess Nike for the spirit and tradition of the Games and the River Thames for the city of London'. The fluttering form of the river contrasts with the dynamic lines emanating from the London 2012 logo. The medal's concave back is intended to suggest a modern stadium. The front is a reworked version of a design made for the International Olympic Committee by Elena Votsi and used since 2004. |
