Conceived and designed by Michel Bréal for the champion of the first Marathon race – the Greek runner Spyros Louis – the Silver Cup was awarded at the first modern Olympic Games in Athens in 1896; today, on loan from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) it is on permanent display at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC).
