| Reverse description | The reverse presents a three-quarter-length portrait of Mikhail Vasilyevich Lomonosov, the celebrated 18th-century Russian polymath, depicted in period dress with a curled wig, gazing upward in a contemplative pose evocative of scholarly inspiration. He is shown seated at a writing desk, quill in hand, with an open manuscript and a celestial globe visible at his side, underscoring his achievements in science and letters. The composition is rendered in high relief with finely chased drapery and surface detail characteristic of proof-quality engraving. The curved legend 'ЭПОХА ПРОСВЕЩЕНИЯ XVIII в' arcs along the upper field, referring to the Age of Enlightenment of the 18th century, while the identifier 'М.В. ЛОМОНОСОВ' appears along the lower field in bold Cyrillic characters. |
