| Reverse description | The reverse features a large colour-printed portrait after Vincent van Gogh's painting 'Portrait of an Old Woman with a White Cap (The Midwife)', depicting the three-quarter bust of an elderly woman wearing a white bonnet, rendered in naturalistic post-impressionist tones of green, ochre, and red against a muted background. Overlapping the coloured image in the lower right field is a raised silver-finished effigy of Van Gogh himself in profile, executed in frosted relief. The artist's name 'Vincent Van Gogh' appears in raised lettering along the left rim, with his life dates '1853-1890' inscribed at the lower left and the issue year '2017' at the lower right. |
