| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, highly detailed portrait bust of Czech author Bohumil Hrabal facing left, occupying the majority of the field in a bold, sculptural relief. The face is rendered with expressive naturalism, capturing the aged features of the writer with fine engraved detail in the hair and facial lines. The legend 'BOHUMIL HRABAL' is inscribed in spaced lettering along the left and lower rim, reading around the portrait. The birth and centenary years '1914' and '2014' appear in two lines at the lower right of the field, accompanied by a small decorative eye motif, an allusion to Hrabal's literary symbolism. The overall design is monumental and austere, consistent with the commemorative purpose of the issue. |
