Reverse description The reverse displays a full-color reproduction of the right panel of Peter Paul Rubens's monumental triptych 'The Raising of the Cross' (c. 1610–1611), originally housed in the Cathedral of Our Lady in Antwerp. The colorized image depicts a group of lamenting figures — including women and children — gathered at the base of the cross, rendered with the dramatic chiaroscuro and emotional intensity characteristic of Rubens's Baroque style. The legend 'PETER PAUL RUBENS' appears in raised Latin lettering along the left vertical border of the rectangular field, while 'THE RAISING OF THE CROSS' runs along the right vertical border. The date '2012' is inscribed in the lower left corner.
