| Reverse description | The Greek goddess Hestia depicted kneeling beside a lit hearth fire in a domestic kitchen setting, rendered in high relief with an antique finish. She is shown in classical drapery, surrounded by an array of cooking vessels, pots, and pans containing various foods, evoking her role as goddess of the hearth and home. The composition is richly detailed, with fine artisanal engraving capturing the textures of the flames, cookware, and foodstuffs. The inscription 'JM HESTIA' appears in the field, identifying both the subject and the designer's initials. |
