10 EURO
Reverse description
One of Eugène Delacroix`s most famous works: La Liberté guidant le peuple, painted in 1830 depicting Marianne brandishing the French flag. The coins focus on Marianne and Gavroche. The `museum masterpieces` stamp that signs all the coins in this series has been added to the top right, blending in with the artwork. The special feature of the 10€ Argent is that it is colorized. The Musée du Louvre, in which the work is exhibited, is an integral part of the design, representing one side of the frame. The name of the work, that of the artist and the year 2023 complete the decor around the painting.
