| Reverse description | A naturalistic forest scene features a large male capercaillie in full courtship display at centre-left, its fan tail dramatically spread and wings partially lowered, rendered with finely engraved feather detail. A second capercaillie, depicted as a smaller bird, is shown perched at upper right against the trunk of a pine tree, its head turned upward. The background is occupied by bare-branched trees and rocky alpine terrain, conveying the bird's native habitat with painterly depth. Pine cones and low vegetation are depicted at the base of the composition. The field is unlettered, with all decorative interest concentrated in the richly modelled wildlife tableau. |
