| Reverse description | The reverse presents an intensely dramatic high-relief depiction of an embracing couple enveloped in swirling, billowing bed sheets, rendered with exceptional sculptural depth and fully colorized in deep crimson and black tones evoking passion and intimacy. The intertwined figures are partially concealed beneath the undulating drapery, with hands and feet emerging from the folds in carefully detailed relief. The legend UNDER THE SHEETS arcs along the left and lower periphery in bold raised Latin lettering against a black field, with the word LOVE inscribed vertically along the right margin. The vivid coloring contrasts dramatically with the uncolored silver lettering, enhancing the artistic impact of the design. |
