| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of Józef Mehoffer's celebrated Symbolist painting 'Strange Garden' (1903) applied across the entire coin field. The composition depicts a lush garden scene with a elegantly dressed woman in a dark blue gown in the foreground, a child holding floral garlands at lower right, and a figure in a red jacket amid the verdant foliage in the middle ground. A large fantastical dragonfly with gilded wings hovers prominently at the top of the composition, a hallmark of the original masterwork. The artist's name JÓZEF MEHOFFER is inscribed in curved lettering along the upper left portion of the rim. |
