| Reverse description | The reverse carries a central portrait vignette in dark brown and grey tones, rendered in a fine engraving style, showing a three-quarter view of the philosopher Christian Wolff in period dress with a full white wig, seated with one hand resting on a book. The portrait is enclosed within a plain rectangular frame set against a dark stippled background, flanked on left and right by ruled line borders. A two-line caption in Roman type below the portrait identifies the subject and his years of activity in Halle. |
