| Reverse description | A full-color applied image depicting the Noravank Monastery complex set against a mountainous landscape with snow-capped peaks and stylized clouds in the background. The central focus is the 13th-century Church of St. Astvatsatsin with its distinctive conical drum and bell-tower, rendered in warm ochre and grey tones. In the foreground, intricately carved khachkars (Armenian cross-stones) and ruined masonry walls are visible. The composition is framed by an ornate arched border with floral and foliate decorative motifs at the corners and a fine interlaced frieze at the base. Along the left vertical margin, the date '2012' and the Armenian inscription 'ՆՈՐԱՎԱՆՔ' appear, while the Latin legend 'NORAVANK MONASTERY' runs vertically along the right border. |
