| Reverse description | A richly detailed scene depicting the moment of the dragon's conquest: St. George, depicted as a bearded knight in ornately embroidered medieval garb and holding a long lance or sword downward, stands triumphant over the slain dragon, which lies prostrate beneath his feet. To his left, a kneeling female figure — the rescued maiden — bows in gratitude, her robes flowing across the ground. A large shield and architectural stonework are visible in the background, filling the field with dramatic narrative depth. The scene is rendered in high relief with no inscriptions on the reverse. |
