Reverse description A full-length allegorical female figure known as 'Mor Norge' (Mother Norway) stands in right profile atop a rocky coastal outcrop, draped in a long flowing cloak and head covering, her gaze directed toward the horizon. At her feet, small flora emerge from the rugged terrain, evoking the Norwegian landscape. The composition is rendered in a restrained, naturalistic style with no surrounding legend, leaving the field open to emphasize the solitary, dignified figure. The engraver's signature appears at lower left of the rocky base.
