| Reverse description | The rectangular reverse carries a full-color reproduction of Duccio di Buoninsegna's celebrated medieval panel painting depicting the Entry of Christ into Jerusalem (Palm Sunday). The scene is rendered in rich Byzantine-influenced iconographic style, showing Jesus mounted on a donkey approaching the walled city of Jerusalem from the left, accompanied by his disciples, while a jubilant crowd bearing palm fronds gathers at the city gate to receive him. The architectural backdrop features the towers, arched gateway, and buildings of Jerusalem rendered in warm gold and ochre tones characteristic of the Sienese School. A narrow gold border frames the entire composition. |
