Reverse description The reverse presents a full-color reproduction of William-Adolphe Bouguereau's 1881 painting 'Song of the Angels' (La Vierge aux anges), set within a circular aperture at the center of the square flan. The composition depicts the Virgin Mary seated and cradling the Christ Child, attended by two winged angels playing stringed instruments, rendered in the artist's characteristic Academic Realist style with rich blue and white drapery. The circular color insert is surrounded by an elaborate ornamental silver border in relief, featuring interlaced scrollwork, acanthus-style foliate motifs, and a beaded outer edge, all occupying the square frame of the coin. The entire decorative surround is struck in proof-quality silver with mirror fields, providing strong contrast against the colored central image. No inscriptions appear on the reverse.
