| Reverse description | The reverse presents an allegorical composition celebrating Stendhal's literary and diplomatic life. In the background, the facades of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome and Milan Cathedral are depicted in low relief, evoking the two Italian cities most associated with the author's life and writings. In the foreground, an open book with a writing quill resting across it symbolizes his literary legacy, while a laurel sprig alludes to the honors of his consular office. The denomination '10 FRANCS', the date '1983', and the engraver's signature 'J. MAUVIEL' appear within the design. |
