| Reverse description | The fully colorized reverse portrays an elaborate tribute to the architectural legacy of Antoni Gaudí, dominated by a vivid depiction of the gatehouse pavilions of Park Güell in Barcelona, rendered in warm ochre tones with characteristic organic forms, mosaic-encrusted turrets, and polychrome ceramic ornamentation. The lower half of the field is filled with an intricate close-up rendering of Gaudí's iconic trencadís mosaic work, featuring shattered ceramic fragments in blues, greens, yellows, and whites arranged in undulating patterns. A sinuous serpentine bench element curves diagonally across the composition, referencing the famous serpentine bench of the park's main terrace. In the upper right field, Gaudí's facsimile signature appears in cursive script above the dates "1852 - 1926", denoting the architect's birth and death years. |
