| Reverse description | A brilliantly colored depiction of the Papilio machaon (Old World Swallowtail) butterfly is rendered in naturalistic detail at center, its characteristic yellow wings with black markings and distinctive tail extensions prominently displayed against a background of flowering plants. The German-language legend 'WUNDERWELT INSEKTEN' (Wonderful World of Insects) arcs along the upper border, with 'SCHWALBENSCHWANZ' (Swallowtail) inscribed below, identifying the featured species. The coloring technique contrasts vividly with the mirror-polished proof field surrounding the design. |
