Reverse description An elaborate, highly detailed allegorical composition depicting all twelve signs of the zodiac personified as sculpted figures and their symbolic creatures, arranged symmetrically around a central classical arched portal. The arch is framed by an archivolt bearing all twelve zodiacal glyphs in sequence, and its interior is filled with a vivid color-printed nebula in deep red and violet hues evoking cosmic space. Three draped female figures dominate the upper field, the central one holding a sword pointed downward and a set of scales, flanked by rams (Aries/Capricorn), a bull (Taurus), a scorpion, fish (Pisces), a crab (Cancer), a roaring lion (Leo), and a winged figure, all rendered in high sculptural relief against a color-printed deep blue star-field background. The composition conveys the celestial grandeur of the zodiacal cycle through a seamless integration of color printing and fine silver relief engraving.
