| Reverse description | The reverse bears a full-colour reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's painting known as the Madonna of the Yarnwinder, applied to the rectangular field of the coin. The composition depicts the Virgin Mary, shown in three-quarter view with downcast gaze and long dark hair, seated before a landscape with a distant seascape and hills. The Christ Child, rendered as a robust infant, is seated across her lap and reaches upward to grasp a yarnwinder in the form of a cross. The naturalistic sfumato shading and serene expressions are characteristic of Leonardo's High Renaissance style, and the image is framed within a narrow gilt border. |
