| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-color reproduction of Paul Gauguin's celebrated 1892 Post-Impressionist painting 'Arearea' (also known as 'Joyousness'), rendered across the entire rectangular field. The composition depicts two seated Tahitian women in the foreground, one draped in white and the other in blue, with a prominent red dog foraging in the lower left. Additional figures are visible in a lush, verdant background rendered in Gauguin's characteristic bold, flat tones of green, ochre, and red. The title 'AREAREA' appears in the lower right of the painted field, and the legend 'AREAREA PAUL GAUGUIN' is inscribed along the lower margin of the reverse. |
