Reverse description The enthroned crowned Madonna and Child seated in glory above clouds, radiating rays emanating from behind the figure, with the Christ Child held in her left arm. Below, the quartered episcopal arms of Würzburg are supported by two winged cherubs seated on clouds to either side. The legend SVSCIPE ET PROTEGE is divided across the field, invoking the Virgin's protection. The overall composition is rendered in a rich Baroque style befitting the period.
