| Reverse description | High-relief antiqued depiction inspired by Gustave Doré's engraving 'The Egyptians Drowned in the Red Sea', illustrating the dramatic moment of the parting and returning of the Red Sea. The central composition shows Egyptian soldiers and their horses in violent turmoil as the waters engulf them, rendered with exceptional sculptural detail and dynamic movement. In the upper background, the figures of Moses and the Israelites are shown standing safely upon elevated ground, observing the scene from a distance. The word EXODUS is inscribed in the upper portion of the field as the primary legend. The overall design conveys a sense of divine retribution through deeply recessed and dramatically textured relief work. |
