Reverse description Full-color reproduction of Alphonse Mucha's celebrated Art Nouveau composition 'Zodiac' (1896), rendered in vivid polychrome enamel applied to the rectangular silver field.

She is set within a circular halo displaying all twelve signs of the zodiac in individual medallions arranged around the circumference. The background is richly decorated with interlacing botanical and ornamental motifs in deep crimsons, golds, and greens, with a lower cartouche depicting allegorical figures in grisaille. Mucha's signature appears in the lower right of the central composition.
