| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic figurative scene inspired by Genesis 24, rendered in high-relief proof finish against a mirror field. To the left, a large bearded male face in profile — representing Isaac — gazes toward the centre. In the middle ground, a standing male figure leads a camel by its halter, while atop the camel sits a draped female figure viewed from behind, representing Rebecca. Two tent-shaped triangular motifs appear in the upper left field, evoking the desert encampment. The composition is bold and sculptural, with finely textured garments and expressive detailing throughout. |
