| 正面描述 | The central vignette, drawn by Bellery-Desfontaines and engraved by the Florian brothers, presents a large baobab tree at right and an elephant at left in an Art Nouveau illustrative style over a pale guilloche underprint. The denomination "CENT FRANCS" is printed in large red letterpress text at centre, with the issuing place "PORTO-NOVO" and a manuscript date below, flanked by two handwritten signatures under the titles "Le Président" and "L'Administrateur-Directeur". Serial numbers with letter prefix appear in the upper and lower margins, and the numeral "100" is repeated in each corner. |

The Banque de l'Afrique Occidentale operated as a private commercial bank holding the note-issuing privilege across French West Africa, a colonial arrangement that persisted until well after independence. Porto-Novo, as the capital of Dahomey, required its own place-of-payment designation — the BAO issued regionally customized versions of the same underlying plate, and P#11E is the Dahomey variant of a note whose basic architecture served multiple territories simultaneously.
Bellery-Desfontaines was primarily known as a poster artist and illustrator of the Belle Époque; his involvement in banknote design was unusual for someone of that background. Engraving credit shared between Frédéric and Ernest-Théophile Florian reflects a father-son workshop practice common to Banque de France commissions of the period.
