| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of Gustav Klimt's celebrated 1901 Symbolist masterpiece 'Judith and the Head of Holofernes' applied directly to the coin's reverse field. The figure of Judith dominates the composition, depicted from the waist up with an ecstatic, upward-tilted gaze, adorned with an elaborate gold choker necklace and set against Klimt's characteristic gold-leaf decorative background featuring scale-like and geometric patterning. The artist's signature GUSTAV KLIMT appears in gilt lettering within the field. The curved legend JUDITH AND THE HEAD OF HOLOFERNES is inscribed along the lower periphery, completing the artistic tribute to one of the defining works of the Vienna Secession movement. |
