| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of Johannes Vermeer's celebrated oil painting 'Girl with a Pearl Earring' (c. 1665), rendered in vibrant polychrome enamel printing on the square silver flan. The composition depicts a young woman in three-quarter pose against a dark background, her head turned over her left shoulder to meet the viewer's gaze, wearing a blue and gold turban and a large teardrop pearl earring at her left ear. The image is presented within a richly ornate gilded frame motif with elaborate scrollwork, enhancing the impression of a miniature framed masterpiece. The dark field surrounding the figure faithfully replicates the chiaroscuro technique of the original Dutch Golden Age painting. |
