| Reverse description | The reverse bears a portrait of Romanian Symbolist poet George Bacovia accompanied by his name in the field. The years of his birth and death, 1881 and 1957, flank the composition. Surrounding the portrait is an atmospheric design evoking the mood of his poem Singur (Alone), with two lines from the poem inscribed: Stau triste negrele tablouri / Făclia tremură-n oglindă (The black paintings hang sadly / A candle flickers in the mirror). The composition combines portraiture with symbolic literary imagery characteristic of commemorative cultural issues. |
