| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed panoramic composition juxtaposing iconic architectural landmarks of China and France: to the left, the Temple of Heaven in Beijing and a section of the Great Wall of China rendered in fine engraved relief; to the right, the Eiffel Tower rises prominently above further architectural elements. The central scene is enclosed within an oval border decorated with a continuous frieze of stylised Chinese cloud and floral medallions in low relief. The bilingual legend arching around the upper field reads '2003-2004 L'ANNÉE DE LA CHINE EN FRANCE 2004-2005', with the Chinese inscription '法国文化年在中国' integrated into the legend to the right. |
