Reverse description The reverse depicts a stylized and lyrical scene illustrating the biblical vision of Jacob's Dream as described in Genesis 28, rendered in a contemporary artistic style. In the lower portion of the field, the reclining figure of Jacob is shown sleeping, his head resting on his hands, with flowing robes spread across the ground. Rising from behind him, a tall ladder extends upward toward the upper rim, its rungs rendered in crisp relief. Four winged angels in varying poses of ascent and descent are shown surrounding the ladder, their stylized forms conveying graceful movement. The contrasting mirror-polished left field and frosted right field create a dramatic chiaroscuro effect emphasizing the dreamlike, visionary quality of the composition. No inscriptions appear on the reverse.
