The composition is enriched with elaborate floral, vegetal, and fruit motifs alongside lyres, horns, trumpets, a palette, and a parchment scroll, all rendered in a refined classical allegorical style. The denominational legend DIX MILLE 10 000 FRANCS and the issuer inscription BANQUE DE FRANCE are integrated into the decorative surround. |
