Reverse description The reverse presents a richly colored scene from Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale 'The Little Match Girl,' executed with fine polychrome enamel coloring against an antiqued silver background. At center, a young girl dressed in a teal hooded coat with flowing green-gold hair is depicted in three-quarter view, her eyes closed as she cradles a glowing lit match in her hands, its light rendered in vivid white. She is framed within a large crescent moon, colored in pearl white and adorned with yellow-green stars. The surrounding field depicts a wintry urban streetscape in antiqued relief, featuring a brick building with an open window to the left and festive shop displays with wrapped gifts and hanging decorations to the right, evoking the cold Christmas Eve setting of the story.
