| Reverse description | The Titan Atlas rendered in high sculptural relief, depicted as a powerfully muscled male figure straining under the weight of the celestial sphere, his body arched across the central field in dramatic fashion. Surrounding him against a star-filled sky are seven female figures representing the Pleiades, each identified by her Greek name in the field: Στερόπη, Μαία, Ταυγέτη, Ἀλκυόνη, Μερόπη, Κελαινώ, and Ἠλέκτρα, each associated with a turquoise-colored inlaid gemstone accent positioned at a star. The legend ATLAS arcs along the upper rim and TITANS along the lower rim, both in bold relief capital letters. The entire composition is rendered in antiqued finish, giving depth and dramatic contrast to the intricate mythological scene. |
