| Reverse description | A dramatic, fully colorized high-relief scene depicting the confrontation from the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood. Dominating the left and upper portion of the field is the menacing head of the Big Bad Wolf, rendered in antiqued silver with a green-enameled eye set within a monocle, jaws open to reveal sharp fangs. Within the wolf's open mouth, a small figure—presumably the grandmother—can be discerned. To the lower right, the frightened face of Little Red Riding Hood is portrayed in vivid color, wearing her iconic red hood with a scalloped edge and braided auburn hair, her blue eyes wide with fear. The background depicts a wooden-plank interior rendered in warm golden-brown tones, evoking the grandmother's cottage. |
