| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of Raphael Sanzio's masterwork 'Saint George and the Dragon' (c. 1506, National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.), rendered across the entire rectangular field. The composition depicts Saint George mounted on a rearing white charger, clad in full plate armor and a flowing green mantle, driving a lance downward toward a prostrate dragon at the horse's hooves. A maiden in red robes is visible in the middle-ground at right, with a rocky landscape and trees forming the background. The vivid polychrome coloring faithfully replicates the tones of the original Renaissance oil painting. |
